    This is another story of 'Profit'
    There was a neighbour called Darby Larry who one morning came on a woman skimming the dew in a certain field + at the same time crooning a tune in Irish. Darby answered with another rhyme in Irish also. Then he said "Lets go halves" "No, take all" she said + went off. Miss O'Connor doesn't know the rhymes.
