  1. (continued from previous page)
    That day upon the hill
    When young O'Brien stepped into line
    The music it did go
    And round the hill with right good will
    It was tipped with heel and toe.
    Another reel across the field
    When Johnnie called for water
    To cool the fainted; and in his arms.
    The brave young "doctor's" daughter.
    The Clarnage Maid was Mary Anne Leneghan and her opponent was Ciss Mc Keown who lived in Creggan.
    There was a contest on Drummuckavall hill and they were dancing on the grass.
    Ciss Mc Keown's father was called "the doctor".
