    Share Share Post
    Fear a thug na Burcaigh (Tigearnaí) do'n áit seo uair, do beadh Myers. Ní raibh mórán meas ag daoine air mar bhí sé cruaidh. Cuireadh a theach ar teinne, hobair nár dóigheadh é féin agus a chlann. Bhí sé oidhche I mBaile an Chaisil. Bhí sé ólta. Lorg sé le sean fhear darbh ainm Seán Mach Aindriú; Seáinín Garbh a tugtaoí air. Gabhadh "Mayers" agus cuireadh bliadhain I bpriosún é. Rinneadh amhráin faoi. Ceaptar gur Peadar na mBréag a chum an t- amhráin ach níltear cinnte faoi.
