- There was once a man named Patrick Murphy. He lived in a gate lodge in Bricketstown.
He used to make baskets and beehives. He made them with wheaten straw and strong briars and sallies and peel them and bind them around the straw. He used to sow corn out of them in old times.
He used make beehives and armchairs. He would bring to the market and get good price for them.
