    looked at the dead child and it was only a beson that the fairies lift in the bed when they took the child.
    There was another child living in Drumroosk and he was about ten years of age. One night his mother sent him to the shop. When he was two hours away his mother despaired of him coming. She went to look for him but could not find him but at the end of the third day she found him under a lone tree in a fort.
