    One night a man was coming home from town.

    This story was told to me by by my father.
    That people generally do not interfere with forts. There is a story connected with one of these forts.
    One night a man was coming home from town. He saw the fairies dancing and he played music for them. This man had a hump on his back, when he came out of the fort in the morning he was cured.
