  1. (continued from previous page)
    There is also a fort in the townland of Feenagh, and in Mrs. Irwin's, and it is said that a man was telling workmen to dig up the fort but they would not. So at last one day he said he would do it himself. So he put the spade to it and from that day out his leg withered away and was useless.
