    into the small boat together, it capsized and they were all thrown on the water, some of them that were able to swim climbed on to the rocks and were saved. Nine of the crew were drowned. Then the news went abroad and when the people athome heard it, they went to search for them and they were weeks looking for them and after all they could only fine three. This was very sad for there was four in family in one house near Leap in the townland of Keamore and the four were drowned and were never found or heard of after.
