    (continued from previous page)
    When he came from work in the evening he told the woman of the house what happened the night before and she gave him a glass of whiskey.
    After a while he went out and did not turn up that night. When he came back in the morning he told the people he had a great night with the fairies at the Castle and they gave him a medal which he still wears on his watch chain.
