Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Founding of Fortunes In the earlier days I speak of - that is to say, about thirty years ago - a very small cabin on the side of the road, half way between Glenore and Port Maguire, was inhabited by an old widow woman, one Mrs. Ginnelly. The situation of her dwelling enabled her to entertain an impartial Opinion of her equi-distant neighbours on either hand; but, fortunately perhaps, her turn of mind being cynical, her Opinions were universally disregarded, as they belonged to merely a very poor old ignorant crone, who owned little or nothing else except a few hens and a pig. Insignificant though she was, however, mentioned she must be, if we are to relate some most poor matters which did certainly point to rich ends - to nothing less, indeed, than the earliest financial Operations of Timothy Galvin.
