    Dunally Bridge (about two miles from Sligo) is their favourite resort. Here they are near a town and beside a wood where they can get firewood. The Cawleys make tin cans and porringers and sell them All these parties visit us about four times during the year - not at any particular date for we have no fairs or Pattern Day.
    The calderbanks;s and the Maloney are intermarried and travel together but have to appear in court for assault very often. They do not tell stories from distant parts.
