  1. Fairy Story

    Share Share Post
    One night a man was fishing at Lough na Back. He saw a bright light beside the shore. He pulled in his fishing board and watched the bright light. Then a man on horseback came riding in along the shore. The man got down from the horse's back. He was dressed up in lovely golden coloured clothes and buttons shining and also lovely buckles. The horse was also dressed beautifully. He walked around the shore and then went back singing.
