  2. Once there was a groom in Curraghmore who was training a young horse. As he passed by on the road beside Clonegam one evening the late Marquis appeared to him. He asked the groom for a loan of the horse.The man gave him the horse and the Marquis brought him into the big field nearby and got on his back and galloped him around the field three times and then brought him back to the groom. The horse was perfectly trained. The dead Marquis took a half-crown from his pocket and gave it to the groom and then disappeared.
