    Share Share Tweet
    James Fleming, nick-named the "Titler," was a nailer and he lived in River Street.He reddened the rod iron which he bought in Cork. Then with a mould he made the head on it. He sold the nails at the fairs and markets which were held here long ago.
    Omitted:- He put the red hot iron on the anvil and by striking it with a hammer he made the points.
