The Sandman BS: Dead babies and Tuam Bon Secours nuns (546* d) RE: BS: Dead babies and Tuam Bon Secours nuns 19 Jun 14

I was listening to local radio here in cork, and a listener rang in and said it was common knowledge at the time that if a bachelor wanted to get a wife he could go and pay and have the choice of one of the women that were working for the nuns[ as a means of paying off their debts, some women had to work as agricultural slaves for a couple of years]. dont know if itis true, but if it is it is another scandal.
