    A beautiful lady from Eglish married Gearóid Mór O Carroll.
    One morning Gearóid was found dead in bed.
    The O'Carrolls found out that his wife poisoned him.
    She was thrown into the dungeon to die. She died on New Year's night.
    If you went near Leap Castle on New Year's night you would hear her screaming.
