- One night a woman in the locality threw out a basin of water in a chanel near the house. She heard a lamb screaming. She went to bed about twelve o'clock and she heard the lamb mourning with pain lying by the fire. Next morning however they found a black lamb with black scalds. They took him and buried him in a deep hole. Every night they heard the same mourning. They sent word to the priest. He came and banished the black lamb. That story shows that we should not throw out water at night.
