- Mr. LaTouche was the landlord of the district in which I live. He had his residence in Drumheirney Leitrim. He was a protestant. He was quite familiar with his tenants. He was not harsh except with those who were lazy and would not pay their rents. He owned about 2000 acres of land.
- The landlord for Scrabbagh Kilclare was Thomas Whelan. Thomas was "Private" in the R.I.C. He married the landlord's daughter and then became our landlord. He raised himself in the ranks and became Inspector. He was a very good landlord and gave many concessions to this tenants. He was landlord until the lands were sold to the Irish Land Commission.
