    Share Share Post
    There were Leipreacháins in the country long ago. They were called fairies. They lived in lonely places. There is a precipice in our field. There is a drain running through it. It was said that fairies lived there. Round rings of clay higher than the rest were seen in the field beside this. It was said that fairies were playing there.
