“When John and I will be coming fair we will...”
When John and I will be coming fair we will meet two farmers. They will say they have sold their [?] cattle to a buyer from Dublin. He will be a decent man, they will think for he will have given them a good price. One of them will buy the evening paper in the town and will say he saw in it where the was a man killed in Belfast by a motor-car. The younger of the two farmers will say he has no time to read the papers, because he will have to work too hard.
