   Bidineen Bocht's father met a little man in Conway's fort. (Specifically Bid. Bocht is Mrs Tim Tierney) The little man asked him would he take money or tobacco. Moloney - his name - replied that he would take the tobacco. He got it and the jot of tobacco never wore out until he lost it. (Seán Craig 13 1/2, dalta sgoile, Cromadh). Compare the above with:

   
   "Stephen Leo went down to Conway's fort to gather Brosna. When he had his bundle picked and tied, he took out his pipe and filled it and reddened it. He sat down for a smoke on the bundle of Brosna. He was not long smoking till a stranger came to him and asked him for a pull (of the pipe). Stephen Leo gave it to him. After a few minutes the stranger handed him back the pipe and disappeared, to return again in a couple of seconds with a tray carrying two glasses half full of drink. He gave one of them to Stephen who drank it. He also gave him an ounce of tobacco and it never gave out till he lost it. Stephen went home without his Brosna and his wife didn't know him when he reached the house he was that drunk." (ó Donnchadh O Donngaile 14 1/2 dalta sgoile, a fuair ó n a shean-máthair é). and again.
   "Two women from the street gathering sticks in Conway's fort, one of them saw clothes drying on a line and the other saw nothing. When they looked again, there was nothing there." (o'n ngarsún céadna)
