- One day a man went to Listowel. It was a fair day. When the evening came he said he would wait for the dance. He waited and not long before that his cousin was buried. However, when he was coming home after the dance he saw a light inside in the field at the left side. He drove on quickly thinking he might be on before the light would be out on the road, but the light was out to the road just as soon as himself. He had a bottle of holy water and a Rosary Beads in his pocket. He took out both and blessed himself and kept his Rosary beads round his neck. Then he heard his cousin that was dead talking to him and he never answered him. Then the light disappeared and the man went home. He was just inside in bed when he was called three times again and he never answered.
