- There is a man in Brackloon named James Kelly. One day he was lifting sand at a little fort just opposite his house some years ago there were stones flung at him by some unseen hands. He picked up his shovel and pick ? walked away; as he was walking away the stones were round him like hailstones. Anybody never tried to lift sand there since.
This little hill where he was trying to get is like an inverted cup placed on a saucer. This place is the North side of the Brackloon Kinaffe road.- Collector
