    In my grandmother's land in Gurtaglanna there is a fort.

    (continued from previous page)
    come out if they were inside. Nobody came out. A short time afterwards he went into the fort picking nuts. He climbed the tree to get at the nuts on the top branches. He got entangled in the branches, and only for a passer-by luckily coming on the scene, he would have been hanged from the branches, as he was unable to release himself. This was the fairies' revenge for what he had said.
