  1. (continued from previous page)
    Whichever team got back the ball first won the match. Lahorna won the hurling. The hurley was not so nice and smooth as the hurleys now-a-days. The hurler used not mind, if there was only a bend on it, it would do. The ball was much bigger and much rougher than it is now.
