  1. There is an old path leading from the Kilrush main road down by Costello's, Shea Nugents and coming out at Neylons. It is a short cut for the people of Darragh coming to Ballyea school and Chapel. Mr Kelly who lived in Killglassey wanted to make a public road of it. There was a short cut from the Curragh road near the Kilrush main road to Newhall. Police took "poteen", from a man named Darcy. A mob followed them and as soon as they came to the stile a police fired at Darcy and shot him.
