- There is a man whose name was Jemmy Boylan, Dromore, Castleshane who made many songs. When he would go on his ceilidhe at night, the people would get him to tell them a different song every night. He used to print these songs and sell them to the people of the district for one penny or two-pence. He lived in a large thatched house by himself, and if anybody would annoy him he would chase them.
