    Fuaireas an scéal seo cúpla bliadain oshoin ó Mathgamhan Mac Raghnaill fear in aois a 75 bl. nách maireann fé láthair ach ag a raibh moráin bealoideasa mór mhór sean scéalta. Tógadh é sa mBaile Beag láimh le leacht Uí Chonchubhair agus bhí teacht aige ar mhórán de sean laimh-scríbhinnibh an Chruitínig, file agus muinnteóir cois claidhe, do chuireadh fé 'na thig san am atá caithte. Scéal é seo faoi oilean draoidheachta a deirtear fós imeasc muinntir na háite go dtagann sé aníos as an bhfairrge in aghaidh gac seacht mbliadhain.
