- There were children playing at a school, one time. The master went out to them and he said he would change them into hounds and change himself into a black pig, and that they could run after him. They say he ran up Cam lane, (with the "hounds" after him) and round John Victory's Crocán and táin na muc where he was killed. They say that (on account of this) the people of Cam will be walking knee - deep in blood at the end of the world.
