  2. Long ago there was a shop in Larry Quinn's old house. It was a public house. Every night people used to be drunk. There was another in Matt Quinn's house. There was an old church in Matt Farrell's land. The ruins are there yet. There was a priest buried there long ago. There is a pond in the land yet. There was a shoemaker beyond near Matt Quinn's for years. The people used to have faction fights from Matt Quinn's to Larry Quinn's on the road.
