   A small hill within two hundred yards of the School is known to the local people as "Cnoc Checily". An old woman named Cecily kept a "Sheebeen" there over a hundred years ago. It is probable that she distilled the "mountain dew" among the neighbouring sand-hills. On the night of the "Big Wind" Cecily's cabin was full of her usual customers. Some had not paid for their drinks when the hurricane swept away the roof. There was a rush to the door. But Cecily branded each defaulter with a pinch of ashes from the hearth, saying "I'll know you in the morning, a Ghrádh"

   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   Long ago there was a spring well in the Ffrench estate (Monivea, Co. Galway - recently bequeathed to the Irish Nation by Miss K. Ffrench who died in Harbin, Manchukuo).

   A policeman who stopped to take a drink there fell in and was drowned. Since then the well is known locally as
   "Poll Gárda".
