- 1. One night my father (Lom Connell) was coming home from Shrule, and when he was near the Dalgan wood a black pig crossed the field before him. When the pig was a few yards gone it disappeared, and when he came home his father was dead. 2. One time there were a man and woman living in Sylane. The man got very sick, and he had to go to Hospital. Next morning, a cock stood on the wall outside the house and crowed three times. and next day, she got word that her husband was dead.
