  1. There was a man named Edward Kelly of Ballynakilly, who one time had pikes of hay in a field below the railroad.
    One day there came a terrible wind and lifted the pikes in their shape and carried them up over Gregory, and no trace of them was ever seen.
    Strange to say the wind was no place else. It was supposed to be fairy winds.
