- One evening Sean-Thadhg took a big bác in Faill Bhrághaid Theas and he pulled it up beyond high water. The next day he went west with some others and they took it up out of the Cuas over the cliff and put it up on the Bán of Maoil. He left it there intending to come for it next day with his horse and to pull it away home. When he came there was no trace of the bác. He looked around everywhere, and whatever look he gave down below him into the Cuas there he saw the Bác below in the very place that he took it from the evening before. He came to the conclusion that it was how he put the bác some way in " their " way, and that they threw it down again out of their way.
