    James Mc Dermot of Drimmien, Mohill, earned his living by making baskets, making flower baskets, and shopping baskets, potato baskets, and turf baskets
    He peeled osier rods and made fancy baskets. When he did not them he made plain baskets and did not peel the rods for the plain ones. He was always looking for rods. He was good at making poems.
