  1. (continued from previous page)
    Some men were fishing with a boat and they took Shea in and a dreadful storm arose and the fishermen were obliged to throw Shea out of the boat and the storm closed.
    Ever since that time no man of the name of Shea can cross the Rossbeig bar without being drowned.
