People' could not go from one place to another. They had to dig passages to go outside the doors. The day before the heavy fall of snow were very dark and sleet and rain fell. It was on small Christmas day it began and the remains of it were in the dikes of some farms until the eighth of June.
A funeral left Toureenmult, Gneevguilla, and the remains were taken to Kilcummin in a hand-barrow made fit for the coffin.
