BRIAN The Sligomen will have great stories about Shawn Heffernan. CONN Shawn Heffernan! Is that impostor still alive? BRIAN He is, and for fiddling these Sligomen think there's not the like of him in the whole of Ireland. CONN God help them if that's all they know. We played against each other at the Granard Feis. He got the prize, but everybody knew that it was me played the best. BRIAN There's few of them alive now that mind of the Granard Feis. He got the prize, and there's no talk of you at all. CONN No talk of me at all? BRIAN It's said that since you settled down you lost your art. CONN And what had the men at Flynn's to say about that? BRIAN They bragged about you for a while, but the Sligomen put them down. |
