  1. One time some men went to clean a river from Seeourm Lake. One day they met met a rock. They had taken away the rock almost sufficient to drain. During the night lights were seen at the place, and fairies were also seen. Next day when the men went back, to their astonishment the rock was back again the same as before. So no one has dared to touch it since.
