  2. This is a story I heard about the Leipreacain. Once a man caught a Leipreacan and he put him in a bin and kept him for a long time and the man used to ask him where he had the money and say "If you don't tell me I will scald you or burn the two eyes out of you with the poker." One day the man threw out water and there was a hole in the bottom of the bin and the Leipreacan got out and went away.
