| TE cur trimshey orrin ooilley dy chlashtyn dy vel nyn garrey John Thomas Kaighin marroo! | It saddens us all to hear that our friend John Thomas Kaighin is dead! | |
| Ta nane elley jeh’n bare stock ersooyl voin, as cha bee e lheid arragh er y thalloo, son s’feer eh dy vel[1] dagh shenn ghooinney jeh e heeleagh’s[2] buinnys ersooyl. | One more of the ‘bare stock’ is away from us, and the like of him won’t be on the earth anymore, because how true it is that every old man of generation is almost gone. | |

[1] There is evidently a word missing here, likely
[dagh] ‘every’.
[2] jeh e heelegue’s] — original gives
[jeh sheeleagh ta] evidently a typesetting error.
