    introduced into this part of the country a man named John Harte was walking along the road when a man passed him on a bicycle, John was very much surprised as he had never seen one before and thinking it was the devil who was running away with the man he took off his coat and his boots and he started off after him, until he lost sight of him over at Johnny Corrigan's turn.
