   Tá uaigh ar thaobh an chnuic os cionn an bhealaigh mhóir atá dul eadar Árd a Ratha agus Leac Chonaill ar a dtugtar “An Teannaidh Ruadh.” Bhí an uaigh seo na h-áit folaighe ag ceatharnach coilleadh ins an t-sean am. Ba ghnathach leis an cheatharnach coilleadh seo teacht fa thighthe Leac Chonaill san oidhche agus biadh a ghoid. Ghoideadh sé préataí, aran, im, bainne agus uibheacha. Bhí eagla ar na daoine roimhe. Ins an an sin, an chomhla a bhíodh ar gach teach, bhíodh sé déanta de shlatacha ar an nós a ndéantar cliabh. Bhí fear ina chomhnuidh i Leac Chonaill san am, agus bhí dearthair do i bPoinnte Luachrais. Rinn an bheirt deartharach suas go suidhfheadh siad san oidhche leis an cheatharnach coilleadh a choimhead. Shuidh. Thainic an ceatharnach coilleadh, agus d’ionnsuigh an bheirt air. Thug sé a sháith le déanadh den bheirt, agus d’imthigh sé orthu. Lá ar na mhárach leanadh stráid a chuid fola, agus fuarthas é marbh san uaigh ins “An Teannaidh Ruadh.”
