  1. (continued from previous page)
    in Shangarry Castle a Priest named Fr. Smith. He had noone belong to him and he said he would marry his servant girl. They were married but after a while he was very sorry for what he had done and went to the Bishop to be pardoned.
    The Bishop said he would not be pardoned unless water ran uphill. The Priest went home and wept bittery, and the tears ran up his forehead this was sign that he was forgieven.
