- StoryOnce upon a time there was an old man who was queer and funny. He would not allow anyone into his house, as he said it was not right. He said that they would take away his belongings and take away his luck. He always kept a supply of old irons and garden tools in his room. He believed that he would have no luck if he did not keep them there, and he said he would keep them there until the day of his death.Rose Connolly, Betaghstown. Clane.
