   John O Leary of Scartaglin could jump over an open razor placed on the biggest horse's back going into the village of Scartaglin; he was married to a grand aunt of mine and was of foxy complexion.
   Another great man was Tom Murphy of Cordal who could bring three bags of meal out of a store, one under each arm and one on his back and put it into Dick Paddys car; he was a black, hard looking man like a tiger.
   Shane Burns brought a bag but of lime that a sulking horse failed to pull and his brother who was nearly as strong pulling it back up the side of a locca. ANother time Burns who lived at Abbeyfeale lifted a boulder 80 stone to his knees in a quarry near Abbeyfeale.
   Dan Kirby a man of seventy years flammed saucepans out of Jack Barry the best man in the town of Castleisland over stealing his asses whn Barry are in the prime of life; Kirby could also jump a horse and side-car.
