    About ninety years ago the "wee folk" were in Melin Head.

    About ninety years ago the "wee folk" were in Malin Head. A man was out feeding his cows when the "wee folk" came and took him and his lamb and a battle of straw away with them. They kept him for a long time and when he came back he was a shoemaker, and is one yet and makes a lot of money at this trade.
    George McLoughlin's grandfather a native of Culdaff heard and saw the fairies near a place called the "Fairy Chimney" in Malin Head.
