- A Ghost StoryA long time ago a man, named Johnie Morris was going to a fair in South Leitrim. He met as he considered a row of horses lined across the road and some men, one of whom he knew and who was dead some years.When he came near to them they made a pass for him to go by, some of them stepping up on the ditch. He nearly died with the fright.
(Told by himself, who was born in 1848 and who died about three years ago).
