- (continued from previous page)hail stayed in this district for a long time.
One day Fionn was standing on the Barnes mountains, and he lifted a stone and he threw it. It fell on a little hill above our house. It is five miles from Barnes mountains to the little hill. Then he took three steps and those three steps took him to the stone.
He lifted the stone again and put it on his finger, and he hit it with his other finger and it fell in two shares.
This rock is on the hill yet in two shares. It is a very big stone.
