    About half way to Strokestown from the School is a district called Drimmin.

    (continued from previous page)
    place they knew that they were not welcome and that the owners were glad of their going, so it is said they put a curse on the lands saying -
    "Farewell Drimmin, one year up.
    "Farewell Drimmin, one year down."
    Every second year the owners of the estate have luck and alternate years bad luck.
