  1. The Landlord
    The name of the Landlord in my district was Mr MacCauselnd. He lived in new town Limavaddi in the County Antrim.
    His tenants had to pay fifty shillings for an acer in bottom land near where Mr J Bynes lives at present, three pound for arable land and two pounds for the remainder. No fights were fought but if one did no pay his rent the agent took the worth of it from his crop or stock. Some day unexpectedly he would walk in and sieze cattle or crops.
