    all in vain, and the next morning she burned it. When King William's army were in Caherconlish they divided into two battalions. One marched by Bohermore, and the other by Limerick. Those who marched by Bohermore camped on Carrigparson hill.
    Buacall Bread is about four miles from the school. There are two stones on top of the hill, and long ago when the soldiers were passing they saw the stones and they fired at them thinking they were people. But when the stones did not fall, they went up to see what it was and to their great surprise they were two stones.
