Summary
A Barra man and his son sailed across to the mainland to locate wood for building a new house but, after acquiring the necessary supplies, were forced to stay put due to stormy weather. They had been lodging with an old woman and her daughter, and a certain man warned them that this woman was the cause of the poor weather; she had been using witchcraft to keep them from departing. However, they were given a thread with three knots to aid their journey home.
