  1. Once upon a time there lived a man up on Drachart hill and his name was Moy. He was working at old walls beside his old house and his cow came to him and spoke to him. He went to the parish priest and told him about the cow speaking. He told no one only the parish priest what the cow said. When he came home his house was down. Then he left home and went to Australia.
