    Land lords 14-12-37
    Long ago all the land was owned by land lords,.The worst one i know of is mr skidjar.Hall. he lived near Gort but he is dead too long to remember the exact place he lived in.This man is dead about two hundred and ten years or may be more than that.He was also a judge and nearly every one that was brought before him was hanged.
    If any one had not the rent paid at the exact date he would send the sheriff to them .My father told me this.
