  1. (continued from previous page)
    Till day began to dawn.
    The pedlar found his money gone,
    Likewise his watch and chain.
    Later he encountered Brennan
    And robbed them back again.
    When Brennan saw the pedlar
    A better man than he,
    He took him on the highway
    His comrade now to be.
    (Verses from 5 to end of first version follow.).
    John Heenan, Crossanagh, Terryglass, Borrisokane. Aged about 60. Shoemaker, native of Kilbarron parish. Removed to Terryglass.
