- In olden times Lord Hastings was the landlord of Clashmore. He was a very good landlord and was well liked by his tenants, but there were some bad landlords. About twenty years ago a poor was evicted in the village of Clashmore. His bed and all his belongings were thrown out on the side of the street by the bailiffs. Even the bit of dinner he was cooking was thrown out. He slept in that bed on the side of the street a week or more. The Clashmore Fife and Drum Band used play up and down every night and the Irish Land League Committee made up a collection and bought him a house.
