- One night a man was coming home from a market in Mitchelstown. He had a horse and creel. It was very late and he had to pass by a lios. The lios is at Knockamane. When he was passing by the lios his horse shyed but he didn't see anything. He went on a little further and something white ran out before him. He got frightened and he fell off his horse and the horse ran away and he was never found again.
