    “A few years ago a man was coming from Glenties harvest fair.”

    Share Share Post
    A few years ago a man was coming from Glenties harvest fair. He heard fairies play something like a molodien on the old fort near to Ballybofey. He listened for a while, then he started to run. Where the railway line was cut through they left and was heard off since.
