As many as eleven men asked her in marriage in one day, but she wouldn't have any of them. There was a lot of men up beyond Kilbecanty one night, sitting together drinking, and talking of her, and one of them got up and set out to go to Ballylee and see her; but Cloon Bog was open then, and when he came to it he fell into the water, and they found him dead there in the morning.
Then it's plain them McBrides dare not be showing their faces, or even their backs, in Ballynavogue. But sure all our Ballynascraw boys, the Roonies, are in it as usual, I hope? Pat. Oh, ma'am, there is plinty of Roonies. I marked Big Briny of Cloon, and Ulick of Eliogarty, and little Charley of Killaspugbrone. Catty. All good men no better. Praise be where due. Pat.
And you, sir, who style yourself big Briny of Cloon you think yourself a great man, I suppose? Catty. It's what many does that has got less rason, plase your honour. Mr. Carv. Understand, my honest friend, that there is a vast difference between looking big and being great. Big Briny. I see I know, your honour. Mr. Carv.

Lenine's mill, known as Vellan-Clowse, which means "The Mill by the Wood," nestled in a valley below the Cloon moor where the leet ran along built-up banks to the dam and then down a succession of wooden troughs to the crest of the wheel.
But about our examinations, plase your honour, we're all come to swear here's myself, and little Charley of Killaspugbrone, and big Briny of Cloon, and Ulick of Eliogarty all ready to swear. Mr. Carv. But have these gentlemen no tongues of their own, madam? Catty. No, plase your honour, little Charley has no English tongue; he has none but the native Irish. Mr. Carv.
I here give it, Honor, to Randal Rooney and you: and bless ye, child, with the man of your choice, who is mine now. Mrs. Carv. Mr. Carv. Carver. Mrs. Carv. Mr. Big Briny of Cloon, Mr. Ulick of Eliogarty, Mr. Charley of Killaspugbrone, and you, Mrs. Catty Rooney, and you, Mr. McBride, senior, and you, Mr.
