- There are two graveyards in this district Moyne Graveyard and Tobar Patrick. There are three townlands around Tobar Patrick. There names are Clonelly, Cornakelly, and Drumgort. It is sloped to the west and it is about half a mile from Leitrim. It is [?] level and dry. There are a few yew trees growing in it. General Blake and Gunner McGee are buried there. There is a headstone over them. The dates are 1798. They are very ancient headstones there. The dates are blotted off with old age. The crosses are not ornamented. There are some iron crosses and wooden ones at it. There are seven stations of Saint Patrick erected there. There is also a well outside the graveyard. No snails are supposed to be the clay there.
