- 4. The people were sent to the fever hospital in Ballinasloe. There were men employed there with carts, carrying corpses, some without coffins to a place called "Bully's Acre" on the McConnell side of Ballinasloe. Big trenches were opened there and when 18 coffins were in the trench it was closed. Many were brought for burial before they were dead and people robbing the place are said to have heard some of the ladies groaning.
