- (continued from previous page)are other parts not very good. There are very few trees in the townland of Drumakill and no woods but there are some trees round the peoples houses in Drumakill. There is just one small river in the townland and it divides Drumakill from Drumleek. It flows into Muckno lake. There is one little lake in the townland of Drumakill called Stringers lake. Drumakill touches lake Muckno for about the eighth of a mile. On the top of Drumakill hill there is a fort called Watter's fort. We can see seven or eight forts from the one we know. The post office is in the townland of Drumakill and also Drumakill National School. Many of the people in Drumakill and Longfield belong to the tribe of O'Hanratty's. There are a good many people of that name living yet.
