  1. The Landlord

    Share Share Post
    Mr. Blacker Douglas was the landlord in Tullihinell. The family were in the district for many years. He was a great landlord. There were no evictions or plantings in his time. The landlord was known to be the possessor of the land for many years back. The land was divided into farms under his guidance. On marriage land was subdivided among members of families. The landlord collected all his tenants and had a great feast to mark the occasions of his marriage and later of his sons. The tenants were not punished for trivial acts. Tithes were not collected in this district.
