- The Banshee was heard by my grandmother when Mr. Moroney of Odelville, Ballingarry, was dying. The headless coach was seen by Mrs. Dunne at five o'clock in the morning. Mr. Moroney was then dead. It went in the gate without ever opening the gate, and it turned around and came out again. The Banshee was heard the night Paddy Donohue of Kilmihill was killed.
