    In olden times a man and his brother were going to Ennis one day.As it was late when they were coming home ,they heard steps longside them all the way to Currawarren .They were very much frightened ,and the steps disappeared at a priest's house. They went in and knocked at the door of the priest's house ,and it opened.The light was lighting. When they were in,they fainted as it said if anyone was frightened and if they went into your house you should quinch the light or they would faint and die.
