Summary
How the Pìobaire Mòr died.
Information about the Pìobaire Mòr's family. He drank too much. To try to stop him, his daughters covered themselves with white linen and hid in the heather. When he came by on his way home from the pub they jumped out, giving him the fright of his life. They kept him there for quite some time. He ran home to Grulin. He went to bed that night and never got up again. He died soon afterwards.
