- (continued from previous page)A man called Thomas MacGovern (deceased) who lived in Tonlagee, Bawnboy, Co. Cavan, and a few other men were once working with a landlord.
They got no food, and they were hungry.One man went to a shop for a loaf of bread for them to eat. When he came back he and the other men went into the house to eat it. While they were eating it, the landlord came in with a gun, and ordered them out, and if they refused, he would shoot them.Stories like this are common of landlords not giving food to their employees.- Collector
