  1. Once upon a time there lived in Calliagh people the name of Gunn. These people were in debt with a neighbouring man.He got them evicted three times but every time they went back into the house. So at last he got what was known as the Crow bar Brigade. When they came out to the house to knock it down the people would not leave it. But the army of men began to knock down the house. The people then left. This land is now the property of Hugh Murphy .
