  1. A Fairy Story

    Share Share Post
    There is a mount convenint to my home. There are passages leading from stickillen cave to this mount and one leading to Mulladrilling cave, it is said that if you follow the pass leading to stickillen you will meet a crowd of soldiers that will put you back. There are passes round this cave and their are fairies seen there every night and if you go to this mount at night a fairy will shove you down into a hole and you will never come up again
