    are James Cuggiran and Patrick Hannon. Patrick Hannon was a good story-teller some years ago but now his memory is failing and he forgets what he intends to tell.
    All the land in Kilcolman is good and there is scarcely any bog. There is no wood in my town land, but there are clumps of small trees scattered here and there, which show that there were woods there once, but have been cut away. There are no rivers but there are a few streams.
