- In the time of the famine the people of Shanachoole suffered from it. When the farmers dug their potatoes they put them into the pits, and in a short time they began to rot. When the farmers went for the potatoes they were all rotten. Then they all had to eat mangolds and carrots. Some of them had to eat grass and nettles. There was one man in Shanachoole who suffered very much from the famine. He used to get a piece of bread from a farmer near by. One day he was going to the farmer's house, he had to cross a river and he was so weak that he fell into the river and died there.
