    There is a big stone near the town of Ballyshannon, it is about six feet in length and three feet in width and it is said that a giant once threw it at another giant. There are many giant’s graves about here. There is one in James Mac Intyre’s field which his near Ballyshannon. There is another at John Joan’s of Coolmore.
