- (continued from previous page)The Ghost of Slievenakilla Lodge (Contd)lawn from the county road. Once on the Co. road, Owen got his arms into the rope and got his hay home in spite of the ghost whose yells and shouts awakened all the residents of the place. Owen's encounter was the last public appearance of the spirit; perhaps he wanders still around but he has not much to watch now.
This story was told by Francis Mc Gourty in Boston City, U.S.A. to Pat Durkin of Urball Barr, Ballinaglera, Co. Leitrim from whom Sylvester Maguire of Urball Barr heard the story. Mr. Maguire kindly wrote it down for me. I am indebted to him for many stories in this book. - You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
