- (continued from previous page)Soon after, the priest had a collection and Carey, and Cristy gave him ten pounds each, and when came to Murphy he'd give him none. The priest told him what he got from the other two and he said, "When you were saying the mass you said 'Carey a licence and Cristy a licence but you did not say Murphy a licence.'" The priest tried to explain it to him but it was no use.
- Once upon a time there was a priest in Ballina gleva with three priest hunters after him. The priest went into a corn field, and lay down in it. One of the men saw the priest, but he did not tell the rest, and they passed him.
Some time after the priest met the man who saw him. The man said that he saw the priest. "You did not see me and if you did, you were baptised by a priest". It was after that the man found that he was baptised, and he became a Catholic. - Collector
