  1. Fairy Folk

    Share Share Post
    In olden times people used to say fairies used to live in forts and they used to see them running softly at dusk.
    There was a woman one time who lived near Sullivans fort and she went to the fort to gather sticks and when she came not she fell down on the road and was not able to get up but after a while she was taken home and from that day to this she has to walk lame.
