    a mill. Jones was very rich and he married a girl named Duke, both were very rich. The town land got its name because there is a very high hill on the top of it. There was a fort there long ago. There are twenty trees still there, and there are lights seen in the fort at night. There were three men coming home from the Rosary, and they saw a castle in the fort, and a light in every window. There is a lake in Drumard, and there is a story told about it. There is a stone in told this lake and a treasure under it.
