    he came on a heap of bones. He stopped digging and went home.
    The following night there were people "ar cuairt" and the fire was bad. The man went to the place where he was digging for sticks; but he could not pass that with a big light. He went back and told his brother and both of them returned; but the light stopped them. It was graves that were there and there were always lights and people seen there; but the men did not know it. The priest went to see the place and prayers were said. After the lights were not seen.
