   There was a lane running from Muchtown down as far as Mike Donnelly's house. Well there used be a man seen walking along that lane every night. Paddy Byrne was riding a horse home along the lane wan night and he met this man. He got such a fright that he got in the bed when he got home, and he never got out of it 'till the day he died. He was buried in Kilcavan and he's there yet I suppose.
