“Long ago there lived an old...”
Long ago there lived an old in Lisnaturbrid. He had a lot of money and he would not give it to any one. Before he died he dug three graves in the Liss. He put the money into one of the graves and covered it up and covered the second grave. Then he [?] himself into the third grave. My father and Mich Quirke tried to get the money one day but as fast as they were digging the clay was falling in again and they had to give up.
