- There is a fort near our farm that is surrounded with bushes and trees. Long ago fairies lived in this fort. They had white horses for riding them and they used never come out by day. Then at night they used be riding the horses around the fort and they used be singing and dancing and playing music. Soon after the fairies disappeared the people by the names of Counihans used to feed their cattle and horses there. One year they ploughed some of the fort and they got the fever out of it and they died except a couple of them living yet.Name Owen Spillane 14 years 28th July 1937
