- Peety Jack that never was slack
And Brian Smith of Mudwallrow
The trial day there was a play
In Ballyduff you may depend
T'would be worth ones while to go 10 miles
To hear of those blades they did contend
Peety said they lent a cat
To Byrne for a week or so
And told him for to send it back
for that's the least that he should do
No cat came back to peety Jack
So up to Byrnes he did go
And such a combat about a cat
Was never seen in Mudwallrow
Peety said its all not done he will
make him dance another jig
He will make him process for costs loss(continues on next page)- Collector
