- Once upon a time there was a man named, Ned Willowby and he had a water dog that had pups. One day he went out shooting and he fired at a wild duck at Lough Eagish lake. The dog swam out and caught it, when she was swimming in with it a big fish jumped up out of the water and swallowed the dog and the duck. He went home and did not know what to do.
Some time after he went to fish and caught a big fish. He took the fish home and opened it and he got his dog with two pups and the wild duck lying at the dog,s head inside the fish.
