Fair copy of a story entitled 'Gille Na Ciotaig' about a poet, related to Lord MacDonald who was originally from North Uist but who had to go and live in South Uist [Uibhist a Deas] because he had satirised the proprietor in North Uist [Uibhist a Tuath] for 'some act of oppression'. He travelled with his horse all around the Highlands and Islands and once when visiting a friend in Bearnasdail [Bernisdale, An t-Eilean Sgitheanach/Isle of Skye] his horse got loose and ended up in the corn of the tacksman of Bearnasdail, who was 'a miser and a churl'. The tacksman demanded money for the return of the horse and for the damage the horse had done. Gille-na-Ciotaig put half a crown on the gate of the poind as was legally required, got his horse and then began to sing a satire. The tacksman begged him to take his money back and never to sing it again, saying he was welcome any time. Gille-na-Ciotaig went on his way, still singing the satire. The song he sang, 'Bodach Bhearnasdail', beginning Bodach Bhearnasdail an Innis (Uinis?)' is also given as a fair copy and is composed of twenty-three lines arranged in four stanzas.
