  1. A Fairy Story.
    About two miles on the western side of Roslea there is a hill. One day a man whose name is unknown went up the hill to burn the whins. On reaching the bottom of the hill he saw a nice big bonfire on top of it and nice music around it. He stood and listened to it. he thought he heard something walking behind him and onlooking round saw nothing. The next thing he remembered was sitting on top of the hill beside the great big bonfire
