Dan Downing aged between 80 and 90 but still able to relate the stories of old says that one night when he was coming home about 1 or 2 a.m (they dont say morning) he was surprised to see a sailing vessel in the Upper Lake of Clonee near his former home Uragh/Laragh[?] Tuosist (where the galláin 12 (standing stones) they say are) He took particular notice of the vessel as anything larger than a two oared punt was never on the lake or on any of the Clonee Lakes yet. When he went home frightened out of his wits his father told him that a Priest was drowned at the same spot (where he saw the phantom ship) in the Penal days but his name is forgotten long since. Brought to school by his grand nephew Paddy Kelly of Lohart, Tuosist in whose house the old man lives.Ruth TMorgan O'Connell
