- (continued from previous page)Fairy Forts. One day a man was plouging his land and there was a Fort in a part of it and there was a tree growing on top of the Fort and it was in his way and he dug it up. During all that night he didn't rest nor sleep. When he got up next morning he told his people and when the people heard it they advised him to plant it again. So he planted it again and he got rest and a good sleep that night.
