- (continued from previous page)ago a man named Patrick Lowney from Locánmore was coming home from Cahermore. When he came to Kill Ough he saw a house. He went into the house and there were people inside. He knew some of them, but those he knew were all dead people. There was a churn making in the house so he twisted the churn a few times. After sometime they laid the table and got tea ready. Meanwhile a girl came down stairs. It seemed to the man that she was his own daughter. This girl went to the man and told him, that the people of the house would ask him to take tea and that he would be forced to take it. The others did not hear the girl saying this. There was another man with this man also. When they heard what the girl said, the two of them got up and went out and went on their journey home.
