A Liss  [duchas:4891005]

A man once spread manure on a Liss and when he had it spread he got blind.  There was another man with him and he went to the priest and told him what happened.  The priest advised him to get the man to take all the manure out of the Lios again.  The man did this and his friend got back his sight as soon as he had the Lios cleared of manure.
