    (continued from previous page)
    This must have started at least 160 years ago and I have heard several old men say they remember the men young and old preparing sticks for the pattern of Ballylanders or the fair of Ballinvreena. Neither event ever finished up without a tussle between the factions, even though they may have been living in very neighbourly terms for the remainder of the year. The last great trial between was in 1866 when two men died as the result of injuries they received during the fight.
