- (continued from previous page)There was a man named Michael Dolan, Balllintieve who would not go to Mass and one day as he was snaring trout by a river a man came along and cut off his two ears because he would not go to Mass.
One day a man named Pat Farrelly was at a wake and he started to laugh at the corpse and by doing so put out his jaw bone and he had to go to the doctor to get it put into its place.
That was the punishment he got for laughing.- Collector
