    Share Share Post
    There is a stone in Dysart where a landlord was buried. The stone is to be seen to the present day. The name of the landlord that is buried in it is Rushey. This landlord died in the year 1846 AD. Fairies were seen dancing on it. Once upon a time there was a man walking in that direction, the Fairies came on him and led him astray. The name of the man that was lost was Jimmy Meehan, Lettertrain.
