    in this district. A hare was often coused in Gurrane and was never killed it always took refuge in Hugh Connor's fort at Urrohogall. Again a hare was put up very often near the same fort, was coursed by the greyhounds but was never killed always escaping out of sight I believe from dogs and men.
