  2. Bhí fear simplidhe ina chomnuidhe I nGleannchuluimcille a dtugadh said Jéimí Mháire air. Bhí an bhean ag congbhailt tinn mar bhí cos an nimhneach oirthi. Thug Jéimi chuig an doctúir í, agus thug seisean ola duithe le cuimilt ar a cois. Ní rabh moran bisigh a teacht oirthi de bharr sin. Lá amhain bhí fear comhursan is toigh, agus dubhairt sé le Jeimí gur coir do an Saghart a tabhairt chuicí leis an ola a chuir oirthi. “Arú a fhear croidhe” arsa Jeími “nar chuir mé fhéin an ola uirthí chúig h-uaire ó mhaidin”.
