- There was a man by the name of Gahan living in Coolquill about 150 years ago. He was a terrible tyrant.
One of the narrator's ancestors was steward for him in 1798 when he was a Member of Parliament.
There was a woman living in the Found (near Killenaule) who had a stepson named St John whom she wanted to get out of the way. She reported to Gahan that he was a Croppy and Gahan got him hung in Clonmel.
