  1. (continued from previous page)
    Grandfather asked to lift him on but he said he could manage himself. He went on for about six miles and asked to get off. Then he asked to be lifted off. Of course my great Grandfather said "certainly" and he said the little man was as light as a feather. He had a little magic whip and he offered it to my great Grandfather but he refused it. As soon as he got off he ran into a clump of trees. My great Grandfather said he was belonging to the fairy folk. Told by my Grandmother
