“Some years ago a man named Thud OBrien, brother Pat OBrien who resides in Clonmoney, had to leave the country...”
(continued from previous page)to leave the country altogether and go to America because of the attention of this same black man.
Any time he ever came home late at night this stranger visitor always accompanied him from the Black Gullet, even if he approached home from the opposite direction, that is from the Hurlers Cross he was sure to have the company of this mysterious person.
At long last he spoke to the priest about it,and he advised him to leave the country altogether. This he did and is now in America.
