  1. The Fairy

    Share Share Post
    Long ago there was a man visiting in the neighbor's house and he had to go across the fields coming home.
    When he was going across the fence he got a blow in the head and he was hurted.
    The man went home and his wife asked him what was on him and he was very sick.
    So he did not go to that house again.
    This happened in Mayo.
