Sgoth Niseach
-
Bha toiseach is deireadh na sgoth Nisich a’ dol cho cas a steach chun an droma is gu robh moran throighean a dh’eadar dhealachadh eadar a druim agus fad a h-uachdair. Bha iad so math da rireabh gu ruith na mara agus gu dol ’na aghaidh. Dh’eireadh iad air an t-suala ach cha robh iad èasgaidh air an stiùir ann am muir tarsainn, is chaidh iomadh te dhuibh [sic] a chall a’ deanamh air Port Nis is muir tarsainn a’ tighinn orra bho thìr.
