Story entitled 'Ron' [Ròn or Seal] probably collected from John MacInnes, aged 70 years, Stadhlaigearraidh/Stilligarry, Uibhist a Deas/South Uist. The story tells how a farmer noticed that someone was eating bread from his kiln. He hid in the kiln waiting to see who the culprit was and discovered it was a big seal and a large seal. The seals are eating when the little one says that it can hear a noise but the big seal dismisses it as as the sound of a mouse. However, the noise was the man coming to kill the seals. The small seal notices and flees with the big one following it but the man manages to hit it and kill it. Later, the man arrives on Taisgeir [Theisgeir/Heisker] and he meets a man who asks him who he is. He replies that he is 'Maciogain' [a MacKeegan] and the other man recites a rhyme beginning 'Iog[ain] gad a thug mi am bith dhuit'. They cook up some seal, throwing the waste parts on the midden. Then they hear a voice from the sea, which is the voice of the small seal, cursing MacIogain in a verse beginning 'Och na och cha mhis an ron'.
