    of Cluin. One day two men were coming to the forge and when their journey was nearly completed they were attacked by a small dog who kept constantly barking at them. One man went to the forge and the dog was still barking at the other man so much so that he had to remain with his back against the fence until the other man returned.
    The little dog disappeared in "Poll Buidhe" and he was never seen since. The next morning when they went to their work they wern't long there when the man that the dog attacked was killed instantly.
