- One night Jack Sullivan, was coming home from seining and he met a fairy dog, near the Pound and the dog followed him home to ho sown door and then he disappeared.
- Long ago there was a cat in a public house, and he was getting bigger every day and he was getting so big that all the people of the country were coming to see him. He was so big that he was as big as a calf.
The publicans were getting frightened and they asked a priest to come to the house. The priest came and made the sign of the cross and the cat went away in a flame of smoke.
