  1. Long ago two men named Pat and Jim Clancy of Ballyguile, Castletown Conyers. They used to sleep in the one bed. One of them used to see the dead hunt come into the yard every night at 12 o' clock. He used to see the huntsmen with black coats on them. He used to hear the master of blowing the horn. He used to call the other man to see it and the other man could not see it. One night he called him the moment he called him he dropped dead.
