    A long time ago my grandfather and my grandmother were living in a house in Co. Kerry. One night he was working very later. My grandmother was alone and she heard the crying of a banshee.
    She was very much frightened. After a while my grandfather cam in and she asked him did he hear any crying. He said "no". She looked out the window and she saw over one hundred white cats and they as big as lambs.
