- (continued from previous page)an céad fear a diarr Cnapastún air dul go Connacht leis, nuair a damharc sé ar a bhonn bonn de iarann dubh a bhi ann.
- Bás an Ríogh.
Cuaidh Cnapastún – an rí a bhí ar Sidheogaí Mhucrois fad o shoin – cuaidh sé go Connacht am ámhain. D’innis sé do fear as Mucros :
“Amharc ins an tobar nuair a bhéas mise tamall imthighthe. Agus ma bhíonn dath dearg ar uisge an tobair sin comhartha go mbéidh mise marbh agus ma bhíonn uisge an tobar glan – sin comhartha go mbéidh mise beó”.
Níl fhios ag na daoine ar amharc an fear san tobar no nar amharc, ach is cuma, níor chualaidh muinntir na
h-áite seo morán iomraidh fa Cnapastún o shoin. Tá Tobar Cnapastún i Mucros go fóill. - Informant
