“About five years ago a man named Neil Doherty who lived in Glack, in the parish of Carndonagh had some land in the "Buildings" and a man named Mr Doogen bought it with the intention of growing hay.”
(continued from previous page)told them to take some out of the field. One day they went down for a burden of hay but as they were about to lift it, something began to throw stones from a "rowan" tree which was growing nearby. They ran home as fast as they could, and the people said that it must have been the fairies that threw them and it is said that the tree was gentle.
