- Long ago there lived a man in Lissanode, his name was Brian Bannon and he was very useful at iron works. He used to make nails for the people out of bits of scythes and iron. He would not charge as much to those that brought iron as to those that brought none. The nails were sold in dozens. His forge is in existence at present.
