- Tullaha is a townland two miles South of Kilfenora. On May day a man in Tullaha got up very early in the morning to look at his cattle. He saw two hares drinking the cow's milk. One escaped and he fired a shot at the other. This hare ran into a cottage. The man went in after him. An old woman sat in a corner. He asked her in Irish, if she had seen a hare. She said no, He searched the house. He could not find the hare. He told the woman to stand up, and under her was a pool of blood, where he had shot her. They were two women who had come to take his milk.
