Summary

A local woman saw a death omen.

A woman called Màiri Flòraidh saw an Iochdar man going along the road. He appeared to be covered in netting. She saw this in the morning. It was believed that if such things were seen in the morning, they would not come to pass for a long time. If seen at night, they were imminent.
