  1. Iúl an 26 adh 1938
    Folklore
    There was a woman going to town one day and she had a dog, there was a man in the carriage also, and he was smoking a pipe but the woman didn't want to have him smoking because the smoke was going in to her eyes.
    So she caught the pipe, and threw it out the carriage window, and the man caught the dog and threw him out also. When they came to the next station, the dog was there and what do you think he had in his mouth?
    His tongue.
