- (continued from previous page)prospect next morning.
- About fifty years ago when my grandfather was forty years of age he was able to cut an Irish acre in one day.
He was the best mower in the district. His name was Frank Gunning.
One day a man bet that he would not be able to cut an Irish acre in a day. The next morning he started to cut the Irish acre and was finished at six o' clock that evening. - Transcription guide »You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
