- There was a man living in Cnoc Firinne. One morning after May-eve there was a half rotten pig on the ground near his gate. He told the servant boy to take it and to put it in the middle of the gate that was going from his land into the other man's land. The boy did it, and the other man's servant boy was coming home with an ass and car, and he put the pig up on the car and put him under a bridge and a man saw him and he put it out on the middle of the road and the man buried him after. In the place in which the pig was buried three pigs died of him.
