- One night a man was coming home from Castleisland. He met a crowd of dead men and knew some of them when alive and they accused him for leaving a stranger into their grave and began beating him with black thorn sticks and would kill him but for one man who defended him who he thought was his father. When he went home he told his people to go ut and release some neighbours mans horse that was knocked and his legs tied together with a rope, without he was seeing in house himself.
