- Fear de chloinn mac gaoithin a bhí chomnuidhe i nGleann Finne agus bhí stair-fhiacail aige, mar sin de bheireadh siad ‘Padaí an cáir’ air. Bhíodh sé ag tabhairt amach min-cháirde ar gaimbín agus bhíodh na daoine an-mhúinte dó fhad is bhí cáirde aige ortha. Sé deireadh siad nuair a castaoc daobhtha é.
“Goidé mar tá tú, a Mhr Mac Geehen”. Ach nuair na chaithfidhe é a dhíol i gcionn na gceithre mí na mar sin, bíodh siad ar a neamh thuilleamaighe agus sé deireadh siad. Seo dhuit do chuid anois a Padaí an Cháir”.
