“A man once had a fort in his field and he tilled the field.”
A man once had a fort in his field and he tilled the field. When he got up in the morning he found the tracks of little feet in the tilling all round it and back the path, and on across the house. His wife had a fine healthy baby. When she looked in the cradle she found a dying sickly child. It seemed always to be suffering from pain and hunger. After a while it pined away and died. It was said that the fairies took away the child from the man and put a dying sickly infant instead.(no title)
“In olden times there used to be spirits seen.”
