- About 60 years ago (two accounts say 60, and one says 100 years) there lived a man in Carrigthomas, near Coppeleenbawn Bridge named Cornelius Ahern.
One evening he was fishing along the river Laney (Láine) He was watching a salmon, and sat down on an island in the river. After some time he fell asleep, and was there for a long time. When he awoke he found himself suddenly ill. After a long illness he recovered, and was then able to compose songs. He never stopped composing songs till his death, which occurred at an early age. His songs were in English and were about local people and places.Two Examples:
3rd verse of seven entitled "Carrigagulla"
It is down by the Laney my darling goes herding her kine;
I wish you were near to hear her singing so fine.
Her notes were like music and surely her voice was the same,
And for tons of bright gold of course I'll not tell her name
One verse of "The Can of Spring Water."
One evening in June, near the town of Macroom,
As I roved out for sweet recreation
I met with a lass on the way as I passed
And gazed on her with much admiration.
Her aspect was bland and her figure was grand,
Her step in the least did not falter;
She sang a sweet song as she tripped it along,
And she going for her can of spring water.
