- In Kilcash there is a well in the middle of a forth. A girl went to get water. When she went down there was a fairy standing on the steps. She went home for her father. When she went back the fairy was gone. Her father was someplace. He met three women dressed in white. He spoke to them but they did not speak to him. It was about nightfall.
