- Not so long ago there lived a man near Tullabrack Lake. His brother lived with him. Every night he used to go on his "Cuaird" and he always had a companion with him. Sometimes he used to go teeming the Lake. One night as he was coming home from his Cuaird he parted with his companion at a cross road. Then he proceeded homewards.
As he was going in the Avenue into the house he heard the flapping of wings behind him. There was four or five gates in the way and he avoided the first two but jumped the others. When he came up to the house he did not shout to his brother to open the door but he hit a blow on the window and landed it in the middle of the room. He went into bed then and covered his head but he never again recovered. He remained in bed for about two months and then he died.- Collector
