    McCaffrey is a brother of Miss Elizabeth McCaffrey, Killadough, Ballinamore.
    There was a lone bush in this field. One night as a man named James McTernan, (Red James) Clenaghoo, was crossing this field a headless man came out from the lone bush. The headless man had a gun. He tried to fire a shot at McTernan but he was not able to pull the trigger. Nothing ever happened to McTernan.
