- One evening just as it was falling night my father went to the hill to look at sheep, and when he got to the top of the hill he could not find all the sheep, and he went out on Mr Ailick Morris's hill. Suddenly he heard music and he thought it was down in Clonmore. He went on down the hill, and he heard the music again and it was down in the Rath. He was telling a man what happened him and he told him he often heard that, and if he put his ear to the ground he would hear it very plain. He got a fright and never went to the hill any more at night
