   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   A man lived in Kenmare long ago, whose name was Jim Shea. He was a shoemaker by trade. He was very fond of birds. He kept a gold-finch in a cage on hid workshop. It was a very nice to hear the bird singing in his workshop. One day a large ship landed at Kenmare and one of the sailors had two canaries in a cage. Jim Shea asked him for one of the birds, but he refused. But as the sailor saw him anxious for the birds, he said he would give him three eggs that the bird had laid, and he said that his own finch would hatch them. He went home with the three eggs very pleased.
   But when he looked at the cage he saw the bird killed by a strange cat.
