Story
“There was an old man fishing Salmon at Lacken big river at the time Saint Patrick was in Foghill.”
There was an old man fishing Salmon at Lacken big river at the time Saint Patrick was in Foghill. One day Saint Patrick came to him and asked one of the Salmon, but the greedy man said he would give him a small one when he would catch it. The more Salmon he was catching the bigger they were getting and he refused Saint Patrick for the Salmon and Saint Patrick said that a Salmon would never be caught in that river again and that is the reason that there are no Salmon in the river.- Collector
