- A Story
One time there came a fairy to a house and asked for lodgings. The man gave her lodgings. One night at 12-O-clock when she was making her bed, she heard a whistle she went out and she did not return for three days. When she came back the man asked her where she had been. She said she had to attend a funeral as one of the fairies was dead.She also told him that there was a stone outside his cow shed and if he would take it away he would have more luck and that there was a pass at the lack of his house and he was never to build on it because it was their pass.
