    “Once two giants were fighting. One giants was on Aughamore hill and the other one was at Drumsna.”

    Once two giants were fighting. One giant was on Aughamore hill and the other one was at Drumsna. They were fighting by flinging large stones at each other.
    At last the giant that stood on Aughamore hill hit the other and killed him, but in falling the giant put his hand through a stone in the wall, and if you look closely at that stone on Drumsna Hill, you will see the mark of the Giant's fingers in it.
