  • Suíomh

    The Sirks' kitchen at Innishargie, which is used by the Coastguards as a look-out station.

  • Achoimre

    Sam Sirk brings to his farmhouse on the Ulster coast a 'divil of a thing' he finds washed up on the beach at Innishargie. Together with Dendy Dale, his similarly superstitious friend, he decides the mysterious object is the God of Agriculture. Considerable potency is attributed to the 'thing' by the two cronies before some rather more mundane explanations are discovered.
