- A man named Dynam was after coming home from Cork one night. He carried his horses out in the field about ten o'clock. He heard all the Ollayoning and he went up to the corner of the field and he saw all the cats and they said to him: "When you'll go home tell Kate Corn that Moll Horn is dead". When the man came home he was telling his people about what the cats were saying and when his own grey cat heard him he made one "Boléin" out over the half door and off with him to the wake.
