- Forty three years ago lived in Gortermore a man named Robert McAvenna. He was 6 ft 3 inches in height. He often got in under a plough and ploughed a lea field without a horse.
He used to get under a cart and draw it to the well and bring home a barrel of water while neighing like a horse. He often carried on his back 6 cwt of potatoes in a sack.
He carried 1 cwt of potatoes in a creel in his teeth. - You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
