  1. There used a woman dressed in white come out of a Lios, now on the farm of F D Lissatunna, Kiltartan, Co. Galway every morning and go into the mail car. She would not come out of it until she would come to a place called Cathair a Droighnin. There she would disappear and he would see no more until the next morning.
