  1. There are many old castles all over the place. There is an old caher in Castletown the name of it is Cathair Comáin. There did people come from America to dig it and they go something made from gold. There is an old caher in Poulawhack and they also dug it up and they got many old things. They got bones of people and many other things. There is an old caher in Greenes place in Poulanine and there was music often heard there. There is an old caher in Roche's place in Meggah. There was a concertina often heard playing there. It was my Father that told me this.
