  2. A mighty smith once lived in Colligan. His name was Mr. Walsh. He was a powerful man to lift weights. People tried to beat him but were always beaten by him. One day there was a great crowd in the forge. The smith showing his might, lifted two anvils in his right hand and put them over his head. Then he put them in his left hand and lifted them to the ground.
