    The Landlord in Scrahan was Arch-deacon Bland who bought the land from Cronin Coltsman who was the landlord before him. He lived in Beaufort, Killarney. He was a very harsh man. He evicted his tenants because they owed him a half year's rent in the year 1880. Their lands were grabbed in 1884. Bland had no powers but he was a member of the Grand Jury. The tithes were abolished before that. The Landlord put up the grazing for six months. A neighbour bid for it and his cowshed and cattle were burned.
