    they were faries. He came along the bank to Killeenagariff church. When he came on the road, he met a Sow and ten Bonhams. The Sow attacked him, and he tried to defend himself with the hurley, but the Sow caught hold of it, and took it from him. In the struggle the ball fell. He had no option but to run to Mr Clohessy's house nearby, and burst in the door with his shoulder. The Sow followed him to the door, but could go no further. He had to remain in that house till morning. So that ended his night-walking.
