“Once upon a time there was a Priest living in Camross Parish...”
Once upon a time there was a Priest living in Camross Parish named Father Gleeson. One time he had a row with a man about money.
The priest told him go home and go to bed.
The man went home and died that night.

RosnaclonanOnce upon a time a man was going home from rambling. When he was going through Camross he met a crowd of men and they were carrying a coffin.
The men put him under the coffin. He had to carry to Camross Chapel Gate.
It was took off his shoulders and he went back and stayed in bed for a week.
