- (continued from previous page)A man named Thomas Dwyer of Ballyshane, Innistioge, was returning home after (cuirdíchad) cuirtuigheacht about 10 years ago when he heard the beansidhe crying, and mistook the wailing for that of cats at first. A neighbor Jack McGrath died about that night, so the bean-sidhe was following his family. But the old families are dying out, there is nobody that name in Ballyshane at the present time.
So if the old families all die out, probably the beansidhe will depart from amongst us also. - You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
