Story noted as being 'heard from a old man in Shiabost Lewis [Shawbost, Eilean Leòdhais] who spoke all he spoke in sean fhacail' about Iain mac Urach 'ic Ailein [John Morison], Shiabost and a servant girl who went missing having said she was afraid to go to the well alone. He went to the well but was pulled down by a man who told him to go to Stornoway [Steòrnabhagh] and meet with Mac Coinnich Bhra'ain [The Brahan Seer] and ask for Siatar na h-Airde [Shiabost bho Thuath/Shawbost, Eilean Leòdhais] for three years. Morison did this and got Siatar na h-Airde and had four sons, three of whom became ministers and the remaining one became a harpist 'An Clàrsair Dall' [Roderick Morison, The Blind Harper]. Roderick was sent to Ireland and afterwards worked for MacLeod of Dunvegan [Dùn Bheagain, An t-Eilean Sgitheanach/Isle of Skye]. When he returned his mother did not recognise him and recited a poem beginning 'Cha tig fuar gun tig earrach'. John Morison asked men to meet at the end of harvest but they left before he got home and he responded with a few lines beginning 'Ma dh'fhalbh ad ni mhiste liom'.
