- A man that I know of is Jim Halpen who is now in a home in Trim.
He made his living by selling laces and he had his lodgings in a shop in the town of Athboy.
He is a very old small man.
I know another man with only one leg and he visits our town of Athboy frequently. A woman comes collecting for him who I presume is his wife.
