  1. We are living in the town of Foxford in the Parish of Knockmore the Barony of Tirawley. There were great story tellers in the district long ago. There is a man named Martin Flynn. He lives a half mile from the town. He is a great story teller and a great singer. There are a lot of old ruins of houses. The young girls and boys used to go to America. The town is situated on the River Moy.
    My mother told me these things.
