- Tade Leary of Tig-lice-Finne was up on the hill one day. He saw a colt with a ribbon round his neck. The colt began to follow him and Tade began to run. He made the house as fast as he was able and the colt after him. When he got into the house he called his sister to come and see the colt. She came to the door and looked at him. She got sick a few days after and died.
