A man had ten young calves, and each one of them died in succession. He went for Veterinary Surgeon and got him to examine the calves. He found that all the members of their bodies were healthy. Near to where they lived, fed the calves they dug up the ground, and found rotten eggs, adn the leg of a calf in a bag. The man who was notorious at working "pishogues" died barking like a bulldog, and eating his own flesh.
