- There was a man one morning going to the fair of Aria with a cow. When he came as far as the Bridge between Fanghied and Drumloughan he met a big crowd of men and he thought he knew some of them that was a long time dead. The men were very small, and they had all small little withered faces. They brought him through the fields, and in every field they brought him into they used to surround him, and he couldn't get away. They kept bringing him from field to field till daylight, and at daylight he was beyond in Sunnaghmore. When he came home he got his cow tied in the byre.
