- There was a man named Patrick McCabe who lived behind the hill of Maol he had a horse and the fairies used to be riding him every night so he sold the horse. The next morning a man came in and he said you sold your horse and Paddy said i did. The man to whom he sold the horse found out he would neither eat or drink so he had to bring him back again to Paddy and he worked all night when Paddy McCabe had him.
