   Kilfoyles Rath 30=3='38 Kilfoyles Rath is a half a mile away from here. It is a very old rath. It is humpy, and mushrooms grow in it. Trees grow around it and people cut the trees. People tell strange stories about it. Music was hea(r)d in it some years ago. It is a haunted rath. Some people never go in to it as it has being haunted. People are afraid to pass by it in night. An old man lived in a house next to the rath and he told some stories about it. Edward Mac Veigh 11 Green's Hill age 13 years. Told to me by my Mother age 36 years.
