- Long ago there was a house in Farrantoreen Killorglin, where two brothers named McCarthy lived. When the Cromwelliam soldiers were invading the district the brothers left the house and went hiding nearby, so when the soldiers came to the house it was empty. They searched for the brothers, and unfortunately succeeded in finding them. The soldiers hanged one of the brothers from a tree which is there yet.
