- One time a man by the name of Patrick Tighe was going to a fair. On his way he wanted to light his pipe. He saw a light in a house and he went in. There were a lot of men sitting round the fire when he went in. They all spoke to him and addressed him telling him sit down and smoke. Patrick Tighe got afraid and went out. He marked the house in the place it was situated and when he was coming home there was no house there at all.Told by James Hester, Vale View, Lisolway, 10/05/1938
