- Local HeroesW. Palmer Duncormick lifted a pump stick five cwts heavy.
Billy Cox Duncormick was a great oarsman. When sailing to Newport with his aged father and a boy of about twelve years,
The ship he was sailing in foundered and Billy cut the mast out of her with a hatchet, which was a very hard job.
The vessel was still sinking and they had a very small boat on board the ship.
They got into this little boat and Billy rowed for twelve hours in mountainous seas.
A vessel "The Iron Sides of London" then came to their rescue and took them on board.
The captain of the ship asked him if he would like to bring the little boat that saved their lives on board but, Billy's father being so glad to have his life saved said not to bother and was very sorry afterwards for not doing so. Billy Cox is a great story-teller concerning the sea.(leanann ar an chéad leathanach eile)- Bailitheoir
