    Share Share Post
    Sa mbliadhan 1918 tar-éis an cogaidh mhóir tháinig an galar ar muinntir na h-Éireann. Droch shlaghdán a bhí ann agus tugadh an flú air. Deirtear gur aicide í a tháinig as tíortha eile mar gheall ar an Chogadh mhór. Cailleadh go leor daoine leis ní túisge a bheadh sé ag duine amháin ná bheadh sé ag duine eile. Is iomdha uair a bheadh daoine fágtha ins na tighthe le seachtmhain gan iad do chuir mar bheadh faitchíos orra go dtógfhadh siad é. Dubhairt cuid de'n na daoine go leigheasocaidh poitín é. Leigheas sé cuid acu acht cailleadh an cuid is mó acu. 'Sé na daoine is láidre a bhí ag fághail bháis.
