From Peadar Cavanagh's memoir

Maybe this fear was a recovered memory arising from what happened soon after we left for Dublin. I used play a lot with a boy of my own age, Seán Donohue. He was from Gortmore and a first cousin of May McGing, whose mother was Seán's aunt, Bridget Donohue. One day he and his younger brother Michael went to his mother's place in Glensaul with sheep and the dog. There was a stream there and a deep hole into which they started throwing the dog and watching him scramble out. Suddenly as Seán reached for the dog, the strength of the animal took him by surprise and dragged him in. Michael who was only six ran for help and in no time a local man dived in and brought Seán out but he was dead. Michael ran all the way home to Gortmore over hills and hollows with the bad news. The parents Stephen and Nellie were in an awful state. The little boy was taken home to be waked and a priest and a doctor were called. The priest 'a young brat' [the inconguously named Fr. Fair], as May calls him, told the parents the boy could not be taken into the house as he suspected it was a case of suicide. May's father, Tom McGing, my granduncle arrived and in no uncertain terms told the distressed parents to ignore the priest and to wake the boy in the house, where he belonged. May describes her father as furious at the priest's attitude and Stephen and Nellie were forever grateful to him for not allowing their son to be waked on the roadside.
