“One wild evening in Spring there was a man named Jack Berry from Killnadeema leaving the town of Loughrea on horseback.”
(continued from previous page)Sitting down to eat, he never took off his hat. The woman then told him, it was usual to take it off. So when he had just the hat taken off, he then came to himself and related every thing that had happened.
He could not believe after all he went through, how he was safe. It is said that it was the fairies, that was leading him astray.
