    waited for surely ten minutes no sign of the girls coming could I see so I looked back and I couldn't see tale or tidings of them. Begon I got an awful fright and the hair of me head stood up straight and I'd have lost my [?] only that me hair was cut off fairly short. I took to me heels and I hadn't far to go home from the rath but I tell you I didn't let the grass grow under my feet. Just as I was going in the door didn't I hear the sound of the fiddles again right over my head this time and they went off in the direction of a rath that is in boolhull now that story is as true as that one, pipe is in me hand.
