    them for ever. The fairies were trying to keep him. But Máire told them not to keep him because his father had no one but him. So they let the man go home and after reaching home he got sick, and they asked him where he was all night but he would not tell them. Then Máire Ní Mhurchadha heard it and she went to the house and them to get a mass said for him that he was in the fairies. Then the father went for the priest and told him to say mass for his son. The mass was said and the sick man got alright. When Máire Ní Mhurchadha would go into the graveyard she would talk to the dead.
