- A woman was taken by the fairies. She came to her husband one night and told him to sit up on a certain night and be sure not to sleep that the fairies would pass that way riding white horses and that the horses would stop at a pool beside the house and that she'd be riding the last horse and to come and take her down. He fell asleep and as she was passing the door on the house she gave three screams. He waited up another night with two or three others and took her down.
