    Trotting Horses
    One night a man was going up to Monaderreen to look at some rabbit traps. Suddenly, he heard horses trotting in the next field. He thought that they had all the field dug up then he went home. It was then about twelve o'clock mid-night. Next morning he came up and looked to see if there was any track of a horse but there wasn't a sign of a track.
