   where a lot of fairies were sitting and they asked him what he wanted and he said "I want a pot of gold" he answered. They gave him the gold and he went home well pleased. There is a fort in a field of Mary Cumiskeys in the town land of Loughanmore. This fort has stones all around it and no entrance. This fort is on a very big slope. There is also another fort in a field of Patrick Quinns named the seventeen acre. There are stones all around it. In Castlecarragh there is a field with a fort in it. It used to be owned by James Roddy. There is avery big stone wall around this fort. Last year I was over at it and there were a few notes up on the wall. One was "Mind passing this fort."
