    (Story) Saying about Fairies
    The old people say that if you went up on the Mullach at about ten o'clock on any night of the twelve days of Christmas you would see the fairies coming out of the clump of trees and hanging clothes on the trees. If you went up at about three in the morning they would come out and bring the clothes in.
