    The Tunnel to Fenagh Abbey
    Long ago there was a tunnel going from Fenagh Abbey down to Ellis's yard. It was partly closed up. Every night there was a moan heard in the tunnel.
    One day a man went down the tunnel to see was there anything strange in it. Before he was half-ways down the tunnel there was a big fire before him and he could get no farther. The opening was closed up again and no one interfered with it since.
