- Chreideadh siad go gcaitheadh an té is déanaí a cuirtaí (adhlacadh) a bheith ag tarrac an uisge go dtí an chuid eile go léir a bhí curtha sa roilg chéadna. Níor bh'aon dóithín bheith á tharrac ó'n dTobar i gcoinne an aoird suas go Cinn Áird. Bhíodh cuid des na sean mhná a d'iarraidh a bheith curtha le h-ais a chéile i slighe is go bhféadfaidís an deoch do shíneadh chun a chéile. Agus is minic nuair a bhíodh dhá chóiridhe ag déanamh ar an roilg chéadna go mbídís ag rás le chéile chun an duine marbh a saoradh ó bheith ag tarrac uisge. Is gná nuair a thagann cóiridhe go Cinn-Árd go leanann dhá cheann eile í go luath.
