    all they could afford,
    Trying to keep from danger
    while they were on board,
    When they saw her going to the
    latter end they struggled manfully
    They had to take the life boat and
    top the raging sea.

    Soon they were not gone far
    when they met a dreadful shock
    When the six men went to the
    gralel and herself made off a rock.
    This is a poetry composed by a man named David Kirby who lived in Glenderry. This was told to me by my father Michael Laide who lives in Dromature
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
