There are two tailors in the parish.Mr Shuley who lives in Kilkishen and works in his own house in the village .He is a very good tailor and men and women from other parishes come to him to make suits for them and coats.
he dont go from house to house sewing,but long ago about thirty years ago a man used go around making suits of clothes and used take around a machine with him.
The tailor has the material for the suits in the house and all who go to get a suit made buy the material from the tailor (they buy the clothes).People dont buy mill clothes ,they buy them out of the shops(continues on next page)
