I was told this story by a man named mark Brown. His father told him this story. There was a house in Balleighan. The man who owned this house was a man named Ned Jack. It is three hundred years since that house was built. The name of the man who built it was Paddy McGoan. He is dead two hundred years. It was burned at 3 oclock in the morning. The man and woman and children were all burned. The house is not to be seen now The grass and all is growing over it. There is not a sign of it to be seen now.- Collector
