    Sgéal
    Bhí m'athair ag innse damhsa gur chuala sé na sean daoine ag cainnt ar phóta óir a bhí shíos i bpoll shuas ag teach an mhinistéir i mbaile ar b'ainm do Cruachán. Bhí fear ins an bhaile chéadna agus tiocfadh leis seasaimh ar an áit a rabh an tór foluighthe. Chuaidh triúr fear as íochtar Fhánad suas oidhche amháin agus chuaidh an fhear seo leobhtha gur thaisbean sé an áit dobhtha. Bhí sluasaid agus spáid lobhtha agus thóisigh siad ag bainnt an phoill. Ní rabh siad ag baint i bhfad go dtáinig scaifte mór preacháin ortha agus thóisigh na fir ortha leis na spádaí agus na sluaiste ach ní bhfuair siad an buaidh ortha. B'éigin dobhtha téicheadh agus chaith fear aca an spáid thar an chlaidhe agus léim seisean annsin agus gortuigheadh é agus ní rabh i bhfad na dhiaidh sin go bhfuair sé bás.
