The Black Prophet: A Tale Of Irish Famine

CHAPTER XXXI
31/34

You shall have a lease of sixty-nine acres attached to the Grange, being the quantity of land you actually farm." "Pray, why not of all the property ?" asked Dick.
"My good friend," replied the agent, nearly in his own words to the Pedlar; "the fact is, that we are about to introduce a new system altogether upon our property.

We are determined to manage it upon a perfectly new principle.

With the exception of the Grange farm, you get no leases.

We shall turn over a new leaf, and see that a better order of things be established upon the property.
