“Long ago there was a very strong man named Duggan in Annagh.”
Long ago there was a very strong man named Duggan in Annagh.
One day his wife was coming through Walsh's farm and the bull killed her.
Then her husband took a blackthorn stick and went up to Walsh's farm. He caught the bull by the tail and gave him three strokes. At the first stroke the bull staggered at the second he fell and at the third he died.
