  1. Long ago Mr. Ffolliott was the landlord in my district. Mr. Ffolliott was looked upon as a good landlord as he did all he could for his tenants. There were no evictions carried out under Ffolliot. The English government sent over landlords to rule the people and thus is how they spread all over the country. The lands were divided by the landlords in some places. Farms were also sub-divided among members of the families on their marriages. Tithes were not collected in the district.
