  1. (continued from previous page)
    back & he saw a thing as big as a horse after him. He ran as quick as he could & he heard the gallops coming after him. He ran in & locked the door. He heard the pounding outside. He let out the dog & he could hear him going round the field barking after him & the dog came in running & the hair standing on his back & just when he was in bed he heard a shout & it shook the house.
    (Peter Kelly from Mike Geraghty Kilcash)

  2. There were men card playing one night & there did a man come in & he had horses feet on him. They went out & when they came back he was gone.
