    He now succeeded in killing Sean and escaped fail, because he got away before he was seen.
    After Sean i gCeann's death there was a carpenter named Mac Hugh stealing wood in Driney wood. When he had a tree cut down, he heard a rush of wind, and sparks and the roaring of something terrible.
    In a minute afterwards he saw Sean i gCeann standing the the stirrups on a white horse's back, cursing and spitting fire out of his mouth. The carpenter told him that he would take the wood in spite of him.
