  2. A Strange Story.
    About thirty years ago there a strange bird was in Kilglass Protestant Church. He stayed in the old walls of the Church and was always screeching at night and use to come out in the daytime. People were afraid to go near the Church to see what it was but it only stayed twelve months. People often searched since but they never could get it or see it.
    It was not heard since.
