  1. About forty years ago there lived in Ballinacliffy a man named Pat Fox. He used to jump long jumps and high jumps.
    One time he jumped twenty two feet and another time he jumped five and a half feet high. He had a brother who used to jump too, and his name was Bill Fox. He used to do a long jump of twenty feet.
