- (continued from previous page)Suddenly somebody heard a great moaning like as if somebody was in pain. They searched again and found the girl. They passed that spot about ten times all day but did not find her.
When they found her she was as cold as a corpse and they thought she was dead. They brought her home and warmed her to the fire.
It was found out afterwards that she was in the fairies and that they left her back. She did not become alright for a year afterwards. It was said that this had taken place because she was not properly baptised.
