“One night Con Kiely and James Hurley...”
One night Con Kiely and James Hurley were coming from Kinsale. I was about a eleven a clock. It was very dark and stormly. As they were coming over Kinsale Bridge they saw a thing up on the wall of the bridge. It appeared to be like a cat. It had any amount of legs and hands. They passed on and it came after them. It was about two feet off the ground It was working its legs and hands and flying off the ground. It happened about fifty years ago. Con Kiely is living yet in Kinsale. James Hurley is dead and he was buried in America.
