    Cholera is a disease that the people used to get long ago. It was a very bad disease. When the people used to get the disease they had no way of curing it. There was a flag in the corner of Fenlough and whoever would touch the flag would be cured of the cholera. A lot of people went to be cured. Some were cured and more were not. Some people died on the road when they were going to be cured. The flag can be seen in the cemetery in Fenlough.
