- Ghost Story, The barrelOne night a man was coming from Drumshanbo at night and when he was about half of a mile outside the town a barrel started after him and kept to his heels until he came to a bridge. There he was stopped and could not go one way or the other. He was walking all the night and did not know where he was and when the dawn came he found himself in the same place as where the barrel started after him first.Rita Mahon, Mullaun
