- Once upon a time a man was stilling in the West Town. One night he went out for a basket of turf for the fire. When he came in there was a woman sitting beside the fire. He put on the fire but he forgot to give the woman some of the whiskey. When he took it off he saw that it was water instead of whiskey.
The woman told him then that because he did not give her whiskey she turned it into water. She then told him that he need never be afraid to be caught stilling by the policemen, and then she vanished. - You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
