Summary

The Howbeg poacher and the devil.

A fellow called Donald from Howbeg was out poaching alone on the river, when a big, dark man joined him. The poacher began to get lots of fish and a stranger said "Imich roinn a Dhòmhnaill 'ic Dhòmhnaill". The poacher ignored him. When the moor-cock crowed, the stranger disappeared in flames and the poacher never went near the river again.
