- The famine affected the district very much. The district was very thickly populated before the famine. There are four houses now in ruins in Ballymagaraghy which belonged to the Mags, the Mac Laughlins, the Shoemakers and the Manuses, who died during the famine. The potatoes failed with the storm and rotted. The potatoes rotted in the ground. The American Government gave them the seed potatoes for the following year year. The potatoes were sown in ridges. The people's food was oatbread, potato bread, porridge and milk. The Government sent oatmeal and relief (Indian) meal to the Glen and the people of Ballymagaraghy, Carrowbeg, Carrowmena, Ballyharry and the Glen got it to make porridge. The quarter of the people of my district died of the hunger and another quarter died of the fever which followed the famine. It was said that if the people went out to dig a sack of potatoes they would be digging from morning (to) morning to fill the bag.(leanann ar an chéad leathanach eile)
