    There was a boy from Rossmacown found dead in the hill about eighteen years ago.
    He went to Glenbeg with two officers from the ship. As they were coming back together he stayed a little way after them. They said they would go fishing down the river and that he would get up to them. They arrived home without him. The people of Rossmacown went searching for him, and they found him a little way from Tooreenbeg.
