Book Description
Katherine Frances Purdon (1852-1918) was the author of: Candle and Crib (1914), The Folk of Furry Farm (1914) and Dinny of the Doorstep (1918). It would be hard to find a pleasanter, more friendly- looking place in all Ardenoo than Moloney's of the Crooked Boreen, where Big Michael and the wife lived, a piece up from the high-road. And well might you call the little causey crooked that led to their door! for rough and stony that boreen was, twisting and winding along by the bog-side, this way and that way, the same as if it couldn't rightly make up its mind where it wanted to bring you. So it was all the more of a surprise when you did get to Moloney's, to find a house with such an appearance of comfort upon it, in such a place.
