  1. My home district is Drumkeel. It is situated between three towns Dromahair; Drumkeeran, and Manorhamilton. All the houses are slated only three.
    There are four persons over seventy living in it. The names of these persons are John Flynn, John Carty, John Kelly and Michael Clancy. These people do not know Irish. Some of these can tell stories Long ago there were two houses for the one now.
    The land was cut up in small holdings. The rents were very high Some people had a very poor living
