- A Story 19-5-'38
Very long ago there were three brothers one of whom lived in Ardcull, the other in Barnaboy and the third in Carraclacket. They worked together every day.
They had but one cow which they reared in Ardcull. This cow could full the largest vessel with milk.
They was a witch in the district who was jealous of the men's having this cow. One day the witch milked the cow into a riddle. it is said that the cow died of heartbreak because she could not fill it.- Collector
