  1. A Story
    Once upon a time there was an old man who lived by himself in a small house in Co. Cavan One night he got very sick. My grandmother was there and he went for the priest.
    He went off and when he got to the priest he asked him to harness the horse. When they got to the sick man's house the priest got out of the trap and went in to the house while my grandfather held the horse in the yard.
    When the priest was just gone in my grandfather saw the sick man passing through the yard. He was just after dying.
