  1. One fine Summer evening a man in Cahirkeem ate his supper and after eating he went out without any cap on his head. There were six men from the other world coming up towards his house and Máire Ní Mhurchadha with them.
    They were going for a woman in this parish who had a baby. When they saw this man Máire Ní Mhurchadha said that, that man would do them. They said alright. After a while they disappeared and when the man went in home he fell dead on the floor.
