A Story
There was a man there long ago and his name was Tom Sally.There are many funny tales told about him and this is one of them.
He went to the Parish Priest in Mullagh looking for work and he got it.The job he got was to pick eight rows of stones from the front of the house.he was not inclined to do it and the Priest said "Hurry on now, Tom,and God will help you". Then he went to work picking every second row of stones and he had them finished at dinnertime.
When the Priest saw what he did he asked Tom why had he done so, and Tom answered "I have them left to God because you told me that he would help me."(continues on next page)- Collector
