  1. There lived in Cumin Gádra in Glenmore a murderer they called the Rabhach. He murdered men and women for the least word or act they said or did to him, Once a sailor missed his way from Castle-town and came to the Rabac's house where he stayed a couple of days.
    The Rabac suspected he had money and started to murder him during the night.
