    Share Share Post
    Deirtear go bhfuil ór i bhfolach i lios i bhfeirm Mhic Buitiméir i nGearrán Ríabach. Deirtear gur dhein daoine éigin iarracht ar é d'faghail timcheall le 30 bliadhna ó shóin. Thógadar buidéal uisge bheatha chun bheith ag ól núair a bhíodar á lorg. Fuarathas an buidéal ann le deanaighe. Níor eirigh leo an t-ór d'fághail.
    Sé nó seacht dé bliadhantaith ó shóin bhí taidhreamh ag fear i gCaipín go raibh ór curtha i n-áit áirigthe sa ceanntar. Loirg sé an t-ór. Fuair sé é. Deirirtear gur cheannaig sé feirm leis.
