- (continued from previous page)All the boys of the locality believed that Tom Dea had betrayed them. He was never seen or heard of again. The belief was that he had taken a bribe and gone to America.My mother, Mrs Margaret Grogan, Montanavoe, Bansha, had this account from her father-in-law John Grogan who had served a term of imprisonment on account of the incident.This old man sat at the fire in the his old age and often he could be heard muttering to himself - "Ah! Tom Dea" with a world of bitterness.
