- Long long ago, when the Mail Coach used to run from Dublin to Sligo, through Boyle, there was a great runner in Boyle named Jimmy Hanagan. He belonged to Boyle and lived out the Doon road. He could walk nearly as quick as the coach could go, and if he were sent to Dublin on a message, he would be there, between running and walking before the Coach would arrive and back again at the "Rockingham Arms" Hotel in Boyle before the coach.
When he died, wings were found growing on his heart- that was the secret of his fleetness!- Collector
