- (continued from previous page)I heard Biddy Doherty, Mick Salmon's mother of Ardgullen, said there was a woman in the townland running away with fright to hide herself the night of the big wind. Two or three were afraid to go together so they went in gangs.
They had to put the cradles under the beds. The roofs were blown off several houses in Kinaffe and trees fell everywhere. John King's wife (was) Bridget McNicholas born that night.- Collector
