    3. Transcribed from the 20 March 1848 issue of The Armagh Guardian newspaper, by permission of The British Library: At Rossahilly, near Enniskillen, on Monday, 13th inst., at the advanced age of 110 years, Mr. Thomas Spratt. Up to the last two or three days of his long life, he enjoyed good health, and was even at that ad- vanced age able to stump about his farm and stable.-- About seven to ten years ago, he assisted to carry into Enniskillen, a sack of potatoes of 80 stones, off a cart, which had been purchased at market ; and no youth could be surer in his step or harder in his grip, than he was on that occasion. ============================================================== Alison Causton Annapolis Valley, Nova Scotia
