  1. (no title) (continued)

    Once upon a time about eighty years ago, six boats from Lacken and Cill Cummin went down fishing to the North.

    (continued from previous page)
    one said he'd loose the knots and he did. As soon as the thrid one was loosed, the storm rose and they were put back to where they left. Then she put three knots on it again and they came home. They did not loose them again until they got home.
