“One of the Kellys of Scrine...”
There is another castle in Ballagh. Dowling lived in it. Talbot of Mount Talbot and Dowling were not friendly. Dowling challenged Talbot to fight. He wouldn't fight but a man named Kelly took up the challenge. He had a magic gun. If the gun went on fire in his hands he would win. It did & he won.
