    Some of them had a few words of Irish. We have no story-teller at present.
    King Crimthan is buried in one of Mrs Crowe's fields. There was a huge cairn marking the spot but the landlord had the stones removed to build fences on his land. The king died on a couch made with the soft red heather that grows in the Glen.
