enticed to move from Scotland to Northern Ireland on the promise of reduced lease. When the original lease expired the lease was increased to the point they were guaranteed to go into debt and many were sold into indentured servitude.

The good news they got out of ****ing Ireland and once they managed to run away from the servitude they had a much better life.
