  1. Long ago there used to be a dog, with fiery eyes, at Molly-Dick's turn about half a mile from Robertstown. Every night when anyone would be passing, he would run out, And one night, he ran out when a bycicle was going by. He knocked the man off the bycicle. And then the dog ran away, and the followed him through the fields. And he could not catch him.
