- There was a man who lived at Mully-ash mountain named John Markie. He was a noted stepdancer. He won many prizes for dancing. He danced at all the shows in County Monaghan. The last show he danced at was in Castleblayney. When he came on the stage, he said to the musician. "Give it to me as I take it" Only for these words he would have won a great prize.
