    told Pat he would show him where his treasure was if he would then let him go. Pat agreed. The Leipreachan led Pat in through a path in the fort. As they were journing along the Leipreachan stuck his finger in both of Pats eyes. At this Pat let go the Leipreachan, and he himself fell to the ground.
    Next day Pat was found lying unconscious on the ground. When he regained his speech, he told his story. The people were all terrified, and ever since, very few pass that fort.
