    lances. Every night in the game field you would see fairies kicking football. In the bush field there is a bush and under it there is supposed to be gold. Plenty of people dug for it and never got it. There is another called the blosgarr; in it there was an old quarry. Long ago there were four men working in it and the quarry fell on them.
