- A certain beggar called "Jerry the Pockets" slept one night near Dunmanus bay. On awaking at midnight, he saw three men swimming near by on the water. Jerry's attention was attracted, and he dared not stir. The men used approach him and stand upon a rock and gaze on him. After a while they used begin to swim again. All night long they continued swimming and at day break disappeared.
