  1. The landlord of our district was Lord-Listowel. Hewson was only a land owner and was very unkind to his people but Lord-Listowel was very kind to his people. Hewson had many tenents under him and evicted many people. Lord-Listowel was a very good man but his agents under him were very bad. Some of Hewson's evicted people went to America and some of them went to live in Listowel and the Land Leagers built houses for more of them.
