    used to drink the water without stopping and as soon as he had the can of water drunk he was roaring for more. So he died with the wooden post of the bed in his mouth. Old men who lived in Castle Street at that time though the Castle was on fire that night when he died. Next, morning it was not burned. My mother heard the man tell the story who saw it happening.
