    more than five feet high. Some people remember people buried there.
    There are lots of graveyards in the parish of Pallaskenry, but the one I like best is Castletown graveyard. The one in Castletown takes up half acre of ground. There is a Church there in the graveyard. It is used every Sunday. There are tombs belonging to the families of Waller, Caulfield, Switzer and Taylor.
    There is another graveyard in Dromore, it is called "Killultan". There were unbaptised children buried there. There were Druids buried there also. There is a small Church there that is called the Teampaillin.
