- Two old travelers stay in a shed in Clough. One of them is eighty years old. The other is seventy years old. The woman's name is Mary Casey and the man's name is Tom. They get the pension every Friday. They get it in Moate. The man cannot see well. They get drunk every Friday. They are not in the shed now. They are left the shed for a fortnight. They have a little black terrier. He is very wicked. They leave him outside ever night. His uncle brings cattle to the station for jobbers. The jobbers give him money. He was put to jail about a month ago.
