- There is a man named Pat Moore living in Belcotton, Termonfeckin. About three years ago Pat went down to a forge in Termonfeckin. There were four men in the forge. One of the men asked Pat if he would be able to lift the anvel with his teeth. Pat said he would "if you put a £1 on it." The man bet a £1 and Pat "covered" it. Pat went over to the anvel. He caught a hold on the beak of the anvel. He lifted off the bench and left it down again. He then got his money.
