  1. John Mc Enlee is the blacksmith that we go to. He lives in the townland of Cormeen. The forge he has is made of wood. Outside of the forge is alot of horse shoes. He has alot of tools in his forge. In it is an anvil, a sledge, a vice, a big bellows, and he has a big fire for reddening the iron. He makes gates and horse-shoes tongs, pincers and other articles of iron. He fixes mowing machines, gates, ploughs, harrows, and grubbers. On the front of it is a very big door.
