Summary

The contributor's father telling a story about a traveller's wife.

A pregnant traveller's wife was stealing peats when the peat-stack fell on top of her. She started to cry, not for herself but for the child she was carrying. Her husband came and started crying for the same reason. Another hundred travellers came and started crying for the same reason. The contributor's father was telling this story. Ailig an t-Saighdeir said to him that they would all be rising from their graves if he did not hurry up and finish the story.
