  2. Bhí lucht faire na gcuan i n-a gcomhnuidhe i Machaire Rabhartaigh. Teach bréagh árd a rabh siad i n-a gcomhnuidhe ann. Nuair a chuala siad iomrádh ar an chogadh a bhí le theacht tháinig long fad leis an chéidh. Bhí a gcuid toighteach fágtha agus gan aon duine ionnta. Annsin tháinig eagla ar na daoine go dtiocfadh Arm na Sasana a chomhnuidhe ann. Tháinig na saighdiúirí agus dhóigh siad an teach mór.
