- I know you would like to hear all about a fairy story. A long time ago two men were mowing hay in a field in which there was a fort. The field is in Glandree not far from this. The men were mowing around the fort and they were very hungry. One of the men called for their dinners and when they looked around they saw a cloth spread upon the grass and the dinner laid on it. The man who called for the dinners would not eat it so the other man ate it. The man who would not eat it died the same night. The other man lived happy ever after.
