  1. There was an old story about tenants and the landlord was very angry. There was a woman who had met the landlord one day and he told her that he saw her husband in town very drunk and she said back to him "If my husband is drinking it is nothing to you, i would rather he drink it than give it to someone like you for your cold mercy land no bargain." Then the landlord said back to her again "Next October I will put you to flight o'er the water" John Carolan, Cornalagee. Patrick Carolan, Cornaglee.
