   Folklore
   The Famine

   During the famine there were relief schemes started all over the country. Roads, river and drains were made. The men received only sixpence per day. Those who were unable to work received Indian meal porridge from the Government. Families went each day for their share.

   It was cooked in a large boiler which held over one hundred gallons. Each family received one quart. The people died by the roadside of hunger and fever. Others started for America but died of fever on the way.

   I heard this from my father John Daly, Blackwater, Shannonbridge, Offaly.
