Summary
The harvest maiden.
The contributor and two friends worked overnight, in secret, to finish the harvest work for his uncle Neil (Niall Òg) so that he would not be left with the harvest maiden. The harvest maiden was left with the last person to finish the harvest work, and was considered unlucky.
