Are there not also a great number of persons living upon the same rditdt : atrertheless register as if ** 5 5471. Do you know such a denomination of land as Carrigrohan Ye* 54/ 2. 1 hat is a known denomination of land in the south liberties 5473- it an extensive denomination ?— It is 1,517 acres. I hate* HaVe y° U f° Und S6Veral pei'SOnS reS'istered under that denomination?— 5475- Have you found any persons whom you know to be resident at Carri- grohan who register as holders of land in Closhmartle ?— Yes. 5476. You know that those persons who register as of cioshmartle in truth live at Carrigrohan ?— Yes; Closhmartle is the name they give to a district within Carrigrohan. 5477- Mr. Beamish.] Is it well known?— I do not think the boundaries are well known, but there is such a district. 5478. Mr. Serjeant Jackson.] Do you know whether there are persons resident in Carrigrohan who register as of the lands of Scotch ?— Yes. 5479. Is there such a denomination as " Scotch " ?— Not on the treasurer's book. 5480. M 1*. Beamish.] Is it a denomination well known ?— I will not say well known; but I know that I have heard it mentioned before; perhaps it niav be known in the neighbourhood. 5481. Mr. Serjeant Jackson.'] Do you know whether there are persons regis- tered as out of the lands of Rock, in the city of Cork ?— I met with one person upon the register. 5482. Where does he live, in fact?— On Carrigrohan. 5483. Mr. Beamish.] Is there a place called Rock on Carrigrohan r— I heard him call it Rock. 5484. Did you never hear it before?— I might have heard it before; I will not say that I did or did not. 5485. Mr. Serjeant Jackson.] You have mentioned, in the course of your pre- vious evidence, that there was such a known denomination as Farrenastig; what may be the extent of that denomination ?— By the survey that was made for the liberties, it was 1,787 acres, and some decimals. 5486. Do you know that there are persons whom you know to reside upon Farrenastig who have registered, and appear upon the register, as registering- out of the lands of Lisduff?— Yes, there are. 5487. Mr. Beamish.] Is not Lisduff a well- known denomination?— I know it; I do not know that the boundaries are well known. 5488. Do not you think that it is well known ?— People in the neighbourhood would know it, people in the parish of Whitechurch. I will state how I happen to know something of it. There were 12 or 14 persons, at the time that the com- position was entered into, appointed for each ploughland in the liberties, and they disagreed, and then they called upon me to settle the question; and I went over them, and I found Lisduff amongst them. That was the way I became acquainted with those sub- denomination names. 5489. Mr. Serjeant Jackson.] Have you found upon the register persons whom you know to be resident in the denomination of Farrenastig, who register as out of Sluggera ?— Yes. . . . . 5490. Mr. Beamish.] Is not Sluggera also very well known ?- It is just simi- lar to Lisduff; it is a similar sub- denomination in the same ploughland. 5401. Mr. Serjeant Jackson.] Do you find upon the register persons whom you know to be resident on Farrenastig, also registered as out of Gurtavaroon .- Mr. Rcnj. DeeLle. Yes. I will be 5492. Mr. Beamish.] Is that another instance of the same kind ?— Yes; not undertake to say that it is as well known as Lisduff. Would not a person registered with that denomination attacned easily^ found ?— If Lre was any erne from the parish of Whitechurch present I think it would be easy to find him out. narish ?— 5494. Would it not be natural to have a person attending from the parish . lt SkMr Serieant Jackson 1 Would it not be rather an expensive job to have persons from the liberties of Cork attending at the registry ? — I think it would. .
