    this child was very quiet for a long time but for these couple of days he is very cross. The tailor brought the woman out and told her it was not a child and the next day when she was going to the well to put him in her shawl and thrown him into it. She did so and when she came back her own quiet child was asleep in the cradle.
    This happened in Killiskillen in Hughes fort.
