Scéal  [duchas:4379449]

Thimcheall 50 bliain ó shoin tháinig bhean áluinn isteach inaice na coise. Do bháthadh í agus do scuab an taoide isteach í. Do bhí beirt fhear ag dul síos ag bailuighadh triosgar agus chonnaic na fearaibh í agus do bhí fáinní óir ar a méireanna agus ó mhúin óir uirthi. Do bhain na fearaibh ma rudaí óir dhi agus do dhíoladar iad. Fuaireadar a lán airgid ortha agus bhíodar saidhbhir as san amach. Do thugadar an corp go dtí na gárdaí agus dheineadar í do chur.
