- A Fairy StoryIn the olden times people used to be out late at night playing cards and dancing. Once night a man was returning home very late at night form a dance.
When coming near his home he heard beautiful music, he began to dance until the music stopped. He went home to bed.
In the morning he could not walk. He was a cripple until the day of his death. This man was a Cronin from Corrin.
