Title - Manadh a' mhairbh agus manadh a' bheò.
Contributors - Donald Alasdair Johnson
Reporters - Donald Archie MacDonald

Summary - Portents of death and portents about the living.

The contributor says he saw a light portending death once or twice. He also heard a knocking on the window one night, but there was no one there. He heard the very same knock when another man came to collect a cousin who was staying in his house, to go lobster-fishing. This was a portent of the living.
