“Once there was a family named Delaneys. ...”
Once there was a family named Delaneys. One day they were on the bog. One of the men said that the woman of the house was calling them to their dinner. They all went home to their dinner except one man. This man stayed in the bog. He got the pot of Gold and went home. Ever since that family is said to be wealthy. They live near Camross.
