  1. Scéal Grinn - Leprechaun

    Share Share Post
    Once upon a time there was a man who met a Lepracaun where he kept his money and the Lepracaun said it was under a tree and he pointed out the tree. When he was going for help to dig the tree he tied a string to it but when the man was gone the Lepracaun tied a string on each of the other trees and the man did not know the tree when he came because the Lepracaun had played a trick on him while he was away.
