   1; There is a Fairy Glen on Killanure Mountain called the Fairy Glen. It is about forty perches in length. There is a "fairy well in it which the fairies use. A "Fairy" hare is supposed to be living in it. This hare cannot be killed. Several attempts have been made to do so. Sylvester Ryan son of Thomas Ryan Killanure fired twice at it and hit it for it lay dead as it seemed to him, but when he bent down to lift it, it heaped away into the Glen.
