- One time a rat charmer came to Skeheenaranky and he moved the rats from place to place. He put them from Crotty's to Condon's and from Curtin's to Mick Carroll's. A blind rat came out from under a wall near Curtin's. The charmer put a stick in its mouth and two other rats, one at each side, took hold of the stick in their mouths and led the rat along.
