    About a month afterwards she went to the fair of Raphoe, and in crossing the diamond she saw this man. She shook hands with him and asked him about the Mrs. He said she was getting on very well.
    He then asked her which eye she saw him with best and she said the right one. So from that moment thill the day she died she never saw with it.
    This was supposed to happen over hundred years ago, and Mrs Colhoun always maintained she had been in a fairy castle.
