The Garden of Resurrection by E. Temple Thurston

Ballysheen is one of those little villages, tucked in between high / headlands, that lie along the south coast of Ireland. A Protestant / rector, a parish priest and his curate shepherd the two or three / hundred souls of which it is composed.

There is one street -- so called -- lined with those white or pink-washed / cottages, all one story in height, which are peculiar to that corner / of the world. For the most part they are occupied by fishermen; though / here, there is Quin the baker, there, Foley the provision merchant and, / distributed in other cottages down the street, you will find Linehan / the cobbler, Tierney the town councillor and plumber, O'Shaughnessey / the butcher, and last of all, achieving distinction by its proportions, / the two-storied edifice belonging to the Royal Irish Constabulary.
