Now, if I refrain from doing this, I am in duty bound to demand a sufficient recompense, not for myself far be it from me to claim any earthly reward, for my labours are for the benefit of our Holy Mother Church, whose devoted servant I am. Here you will see I know the exact value of your property, and its rental.

Rowland Winn, his uncle, the titular owner of Glenbehy, is set down among the Irish landlords as owning 13,932 Irish acres at a rental of £1382. After we passed the castle we began to hear the blowing of rude horns from time to time on the distant hills.
