    Two fellows and myself wen wan night to frighten two more fellows...

    Two fellows and myself wen wan night to frighten two more fellows coming home from a card school.
    Two of the fellows stripped naked and I held their clothes. Jimmy Waters and Paul Sheehan were their names. Wan fellow got up on the other fellow's back when the two lads were coming.
    The two fellows got a terrible fright and wan of them started praying. But the other plucked up courage and he got a big stone and fired it. If wan of them got it he was dead. The boyos rand and got in the bed before the men got in.
