  1. (continued from previous page)
    they found him they wrapped his body in a sheet. When they were seturning home they went into a house where they knew that poteen was sold to get refreshments. They left the corspse on the fence outside. When they came out of the house the sheets were gone. That shows the state the people were in at that time.
    I was told about the "bad times" by my father, Thady Muldoon Kilgarvin, Bonniconlon, Ballina, ko. Mayo.
