Long ago there was a girl is Lisbaby, it is three miles from this school. This girl was carried into a fort and a fiddler left instead of her. All the young people used to go to the house every night to hear the fiddler because the people of the house were afraid of him. After six Months the fiddler left and the right girl came back, but the fiddler told them before he left that if she married inside the bounds of Lisbaby, she would be carried off again. So she married behind Killarney.
