    “Dick Dundon who once lived in Clouncagh was said to be so strong that he could shake the ground with a shout.”

    Dick Dundon who once lived in Clouncagh was said to be so strong that he could shake the ground with a shout. One day he was told to call the men to their dinner. He stood up on a rock from which he could see the men and he gave such a shout that the rock split and a hunter and hound came out of it.
