Transcription

Dòmhnall Caimbeul: Uill bha... bha fear a' dol a Bharra Head 's fear a Phabaigh. Bha Campbell a' dol a Bharra Head 's bha MacLean a' dol a Phabaigh, 's chaidh... chuir an fheadhainn a bha san sgothaidh...

"Uill ma-thà, an taobh air an tèid i theirigeadh i ann."

Agus bha iad ga h-iomradh nan dithis co-dhiù 's chaidh an sgoth, chaidh i half and half - chaidh i eadar Barra Head 's Pabaigh. Cha do leig an dala fear stub leis an fhear eile. Cha do leig.
