    When the child heard that he jumped out of the cradle and he shouted "Oh my wife and children will be all burned",. He ran out the chimney and never was seen again.

  2. Francis Boylan was a basket maker who lived in Tobar about fifty years ago. He used to go out during the days gathering suitable rods. When he would go home at night he would put the rods into boiling water so that it would be easy to take the skin off them. When he would take out the rods he had only to take them in his hands and the skin would peel off easily. He would make the basket then.
