- There was a local wag named Moc who lived in Castlecoote. He often met Parson Cumley at the forge in Fuerty - The Parson loved to mix with his neighbours and indulge in funny stories -
One day they met at the forge and the Parson said "Well, Moc, I hear you are a great Irish speaker. Could you tell me what is the Irish for Parson"? "Indeed yer Honour I cant tell you that" said Moc. There was great laughter in the forge when the Parson said "Ha I have you now" "Well yer Honour" said Moc "What I mane is There were no Parsons out when the Irish Language was made.""The first O'Connor couldn't spell.
The gallant man knew not N from L.
By deeds of fame he won the name
His degenerate sons contending claim."
Those lines were written by the Parson on the back of a pamphlet whhich was sent round to scholars by the O'Connor to show that he had a claim to the title "The O'Connor".
The parson returned the pamphlet with his own lines.
