1. Strange Animals

   

   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   There are not many strange animals to be found in this country but it is supposed there is a serpent inhabiting a lake in Gowla.
   This place is situated in an isolated spot about one mile from here. He is supposed to be a huge animal shaped like a sea dragon and he is only seen at rare intervals. About three years ago a young boy was coming home late at night and when he saw a dark form in the water. His cries attracted attention and many people gathered by the lake but could see nothing but a mighty head above the water.
   This animal the old people say has a lot of gold which a cranky old maid when dying threw into the water. Several attempts have been made to capture him, they have never proved successful on account of his appearing at unexpected intervals.
