- Five years ago there lived a man and he was called the match-maker. His right name was Tom Smyth.
He lived in a small house near Corlatt cross-roads. There was no one living with him.He used to set potatoes and when they were big he used to sell them.
He used to go to the house of the girl who wanted to get married. When he had the marriage arranged he had a big dance in his own house for the girl and boy.- Collector
