Scéalta  [duchas:4388654]

During the penal times three priests were hiding near Ballyshannon. Two of them were shot, and the third made his way to the Dunmuckrim road. He was refused shelter by a family called A–, but the V– family got him away to the West, safely, in a cast. He promised that his benefactors would prosper, and those who refused him shelter would go down. This day the V– family have prospered and the A– family have gone down.
