  2. Not so many years ago a woman in Timoleague by the name of Mrs Ryan dreamt or saw a man all in red come in the window and walk across her bedroom and disappear.
    Next day she got a cable from America telling her that her son had been murdered by Gangsters and that all his money had been stolen, also that he was to be married the next day.
    As she saw him again next night she told the Priest and he blessed the house and said prayers for the man, after that the man was seen no more.
