- (continued from previous page)Some ships that were out on sea, were swept ashore and dashed to pieces against the rocks. The next morning the salt water of the sea was on the rods in the gardens.
Since the occurance of the big wind the (oc) old people always like to build their houses down in hollows and low places.Mrs. Morrisroe Mary Hopkins

Ballaghaderreen Ballaghaderreen - A StoryThere was once an old castle situated in Castlemore. It was owned by a man whose name was O'Donnell. This castle was very useful to the people because there was a mill there.
The people brought their oats to this old mill to be ground. The man who owned this castle died.
Red Hugh O'Donnell burnt the castle to the ground in order to prevent the English soldiers from getting possession of it. It was situated about a mile from Ballaghaderreen.Mrs. Sh Mary Raftery
