  2. There is a place four miles outside Tuam called Castle Moyle. There is a huge river there called Castle Moyle. It is in the middle of a big wood. There is a big hole in the ground fifteen or sixteen feet down the ground. Long ago the English used to catch the prisoners and put them down the hole and leave them down the hole. They used to leave them there until they would die of hunger.
