- There was a man one time. He lived near a wood he was told that a leiprecaun lived in the wood. He went out one night at half past twelve o'clock. As he came near the wood he saw someone hammering a shoe. After some time he he saw it was a leiprecaun and caught him. He asked him where was his money at first he would not tell him, he asked him again this time he told him to come along with him. The man was going along with the leiprecaun when the leiprecaun shouted look at the big dog behind you. The man looked back but there was no dog behind him and the leiprecaun got away. The old people say that you should never take your eyes off a leiprecaun.
