  1. There is an old rock at Tamlett at which little pipes used to be found. An old man in the neighborhood used to go visiting in other houses. One moonlight night when he was passing the rock he saw very nice blue lights & heard beautiful music & wonderful laughing. He was afraid to pass for he knew it was a band of fairies.
