of these, 2520 are in Monaghan and 5119 in Fermanagh.
The soil is generally good, and there is no waste land,
but abundance of bog and limestone; about 600 acres
are under water. Among the seats are Cara, the
residence of J. Hassard, Esq..; Lake View, of D. Smith,
Esq.; and Farm Hill, of C. Crowe, Esq. The living is
a rectory and vicarage, in the diocese of Clogher and
patronage of the Bishop; on the demise of the incumbent
of Currin, a considerable part of Drumkrin,
which is now held with that parish, will be united to

comprises 154 acres. The church is a small building.
In the R. C. divisions it is the head of a district, including

chapels in the last-named parish: about 60 children are
educated in a public and 100 in a private school.
