“About ninety years ago, a blacksmith lived in Knockroe, four miles from Dunmore, Co. Galway.”
(continued from previous page)he had shod.
After the blacksmith's the forge was not used for a number of years and Mrs Cullinane, daughter of the smith, sent for a cousin of hers and told him to take the anvil away.
It failed the man to remove the anvil from the ground. Soon after, this man who was young fell ill and died and the forge has not been interfered with ever since.(no title)
“Frank Flaherty (deceased) who was a great sportsman and fond of shooting told this story of his own experience.”
