    Bhí fear ann fadó agus gach oidhche thagadh sprid go dtí an tigh. Deireadh sé "coineall agus coinnleóir ann is cá bhfuil a leath-rann san". Do bhí eagla mór ar an bhfear agus lá amháin d'innis an fear a sgéal do cheann do's na comharsa. D'iarr an chomharsa air cead a thabhairt dó chun dul leis. Bhí fear a thige sásta. An oidhche sin do chuaidh an bheirt fhear ins an leaba cheadhna. San am marbh de'n oidhche tháinig an sprid ins an seomra agus a dubhairt "coineall agus coinnleóir ann is cá bhfuil a leath-rann san". Dubhairt an chomharsa a bhí sa leabhadh "Dá ndean-fása t-aithrithe in am ní bheidhfeáid samhailt ansan". As san amach níor tháinig an sprid go dtí an seómra. Chuir an chomharsa an ruaigh air.
