    Leathanach 224

    One of our great local singers was James Fogarty living in the parish of Drom, Co. Tipperary. Some of his songs were "Maura Ruad" and "Carden's Wild Domain". He was a great patriot and spent some time in jail. He went by the name of "Nelson" because his father walked to Dublin to meet a landlord and back again. When he came he said he was as good as Nelson the great warrior. He lived about the end of the nineteenth century. None of his near relatives are alive.
    Thomas Murray of Drom, parish of Drom, Co. Tipperary, was a great storyteller. His favourite stories were about the Fenians and Ghost stories.

    (Drom-treas-coill, Dúnmaonmhuighe)
    A few gollauns are to be seen in the townland of Drom-treas-coill, anglicised Droumdrastil. A battle was fought in this townland, the combatants being the McCarthys of Gleann-a-Chroim and the O'Donovans of Castle Donovan. It is said locally that the McCarthys were victorious, and that after the battle, the dead on both sides were removed for internment. Some time afterwards, the dead bodies were found in the battlefield, and tradition states that these bodies were buried at the spot, where now stand the Gollauns.
    The old name-makers gave the name Drom-treas-coill to the townland, and a very suitable name it is.
    Drom = a ridge
    treas = a battle
    coill = a wood
    I got this information from Dómhnall 'ac Coitir of Doire na Cathrach who died about ten years ago - aged 89 years.

    Games I play
    Jack my man
    A number sit around the fire. A piece of a stick is got and one end of it is it. Then the first person takes it in his hand while it is lit and says "Jack my man if you die in my hand the straddle and mats will surely go on". Then he hands it to the next person who says the same and so on. Whose ever hand it quenches in must bend down his back and shut his eyes till "the straddle and mats" are put on. Each person takes something in his hand and on turn they hit the person who is bent holding the object over him and saying drom, drom, dorm what hangs over you. If he is able to guess right he goes free and then game starts all over again. If he is not, the objects are piled up on his back till he guesses right. Sometimes he would have quite a pile of objects on his back before he succeeds in guessing right.
