Tá lios i mBaile Uí C[h]urraoin agus fadó bhíod[h] an-chuid sid[h]eóga ann agus bhídís ar an mbóthar gach oidhche. An oidhche seo bhí fear ag gabháil síos an bóthar agus dho theaghmhaigh fear an-bheag leis. Tabhair dom píosa tobac arsa an fear beag leis. Níl sé agam arsa an fear eile leis agus bhí fios ag an sidheóg go raibh sé ina phóca aige. Le na linn thuit an fear fuar marbh ar an dtalamh.
Níorbh fhada go dtáinig beirt bhan agus d'iarr an fe[ar] beag píosa tobac ortha. Thugadar do é agus thug sé slat draoid[h]eachta dóibh. Fuair mé an sgéal seo ó Liam Ó Lonáin. 46 blian.
