  1. Folklore - Funny Story

    Share Share Post
    Michael Brett of Lecarrow walked to Croghan one day to buy himself wax. As he was coming home he saw a hare. He flung the wax at the hare and stuck it between his two eyes. As the hare was going out in the gap he met another hare and the two collided and stuck together. Then the man followed them and caught them and got his wax and brought home the two hares.
