Broaders was the priest's name. He came, and kicked the devil out through the roof of the house. And where he went out he made a hole in the roof. Lord Tottenham sent for a carpenter to come and put on the slates on the roof for him. He came and put on the slates. But they weren't long on when they fell off again.
