- One night a woman was up late spinning. At about 12 o'clock a little red woman came in and asked for cards and a wheel and about twelve little women came in and asked for cards and wheels. One asked for a loom and in the morning they had the frieze spun and woven. The piece of frieze was above on the Altar in the old Church in Balla for many years.
