Claare ny Gael 29th December 2019

Bob Carswell delivers a weekly programme of great Manx Gaelic broadcasting and entertainment. This time James Chalenor is telling us particularly about some officials who no longer feature in the Island's administration of justice and other functions. However, in 1653 when Chalenor was writing, the office of Receiver (later Receiver-General and Collector, but no longer referred to after 1948) and the Water-Bailiff (coming to an end in 1885) were still in existence. There's a hard winter on Gowaltys ny Beiyn, with the weather making rebuilding of the windmill difficult and food shortages to make the animals' situation even more difficult.
