  1. Landlords.
    The landlord in this district was Sir William Styles, who lived in Glenmore Castle. A lot of people were evicted when the estate was founded and this created a lot of hatred. All the tenants were afraid of him as he could turn them out anytime he liked. Some of them could not get time to finish their dinner.
