  1. There was once his old man who lived near our house. One day he went to visit his sister up near Kilmorgen . There was another old man in the house and he was a great story teller . So tis man kept listening to him for a long time. Then it was a late hour of the night . He then said he was going home, So the old man told him to stay for the night so he then said, I will not be afraid at all. Then he started home and he had to cross four fields to the road, There was steps going out of the second field and as he was going to put his foot up on the step he saw a little man sitting on the step. He went to step out one side and he was taken and fired out on the road . So he said he would never go back again.
