    My father said that he was coming home from Limerick one night in the horse car and it was very dark.
    He was coming up near Dromoland and the horse was running Suddenly the horse stood up and he refused to go.
    A man came on a biycle and my Father asked him to stop. He got off the bicycle and he came up to my father.
