Droichead Inis Ní [duchas:4595654]

Rinneadh an droichéad sa mbliadhan 1884.
Roimhe sin ní raibh aon bealach lé dul amach 
acht i mbád.
Bhí m'athair ag obair ar an droichead. Lá amháin
bhí lán báid do dhaoine ag dul trasna. Bhí
beirt fear ar an dtalamh agus thosuigh siad ag
caitheadh clocaí. D'iompuigh an bád agus báthadh
gach duine acu acht beirt nó triúir.
Níor báthadh m'athair sábháil fear eile é. Agus ó shoin
i leith deirtear go bhfuil sidheóga ins an droicead.
Bhí m'athair ag obair i gCloch na Rón uair amháin
maidin amháin agus é ag dul amach agus
bhí fear mór ar an mbóthar agus an céad
maidin eile bhí sé ann arís, agus an tríomhadh
maidin bhí fear eile leis agus ní fhacha sé tada.
