  1. A Dangerous Ride

    Share Share Post
    There is a fort in Lisduff and it is about two feet higher than the surrounding land. There were a few lone trees in it and no matter how badly a man wanted a bush he never would cut any of those. One man had a black goat and he (wer) went into the cave and no one could get him out. One man went in and the goat asked him would he come for a ride but where will I ride. 'On my tail 'Isent it good enough for you said the goat
