A short documentary piece on a largely unknown figure - Cushey Glen who terrorised those who traveled the murder hole road between Limavady and Coleraine, Northern Ireland in the 1700's.

With eyes blindfolded, saved him from the shocks
That death still batters on the sinning soul
And pointed him the way to heaven's goal.
