“Out at Major Crowley's gate the Maidrín Droichid used be seen lying across the road . . .”
(continued from previous page)At the back of Glenville's house there is a stone and if a person shifted it away it would be back in its place again in the morning.
- One of our old Cappoquin Carters P Coleman (Shia) was driving to Clonmel and met Petticoat Loose. She asked him for a drive and when they arrived at the Half Way house, Petticoat Loose told him that he was lucky to have what he had in his pocket and that his horse would be dead in the morning. Shia had a pinch of salt in his pocket and owing to that his life was saved. In the morning his horse was dead.
