  1. (no title) (continued)

    On Roddy's farm in the townland of Barra and Larish of Desertegney there is a fairy.

    (continued from previous page)
    revels and parades in the adjoining fields and on the banks of the stream which flows past.
    The man who claims to have last seen these fairies is Neal McGrorry of Shanagre. This was at six o'clock on a fine summer morning, when the fairies were playing games on the bridge of the Castleross stream near the fairy fort.
