“One Christmas Eve Patrick Duffy went down to Sheelagh yard and before he left the house he saw the church all lighted up but when he went up to the chapel yard he found that there were no lights atall.”
One Christmas Eve Patrick Duffy went down to Sheelagh yard and before he left the house he saw the church all lighted up but when he went up to the chapel yard he found that there was no lights atall. He sat down to rest and when he was going away he forgot his handkerchief and when he went back for it he saw a big crowd of little men running in and out through a shed beside him.
