   Local Hereos; Strong Men

   James Mc Morrow of Fahy (Faiche), Ballinaglera, Co Leitrim could lift a large stone that was in the townland of Fahy, on the east shore of Lake Allen. This man is alive yet- he is about ninety years of age (1938). No other person could lift the stone but himself.

   Frank Early of Eden, Ballinaglera, could lift forty stone of grain.

   Francis Mc Grail, Slievenakilla, Ballinaglera was the best stone thrower in the parish. This man was a teacher in the old Slievenakilla School.

   One time Frank Flynn of Derrnageer (Doire na gCaor) was going to a wedding in Glangevlin. When he was going across the mountain a hare rose up before him and he ran after it and caught it.

   Myles Mc Girl was the swiftest runner in the parish of Ballinaglera. When the "gentlemen" were in the "Lodge" , a man called Johny Wills, who lived in Dublin, used to come to the "lodge" every year to shoot the mountain. He was a very swift runner and he challenged Michael Mc Girl to run. They ran from the lodge to the river which bounds Slievenakilla and Aughrim. Michael Mc Girl won the race.
