- There is a strange animal seen at Lissonade from nine o' clock until twelve every night during the winter months. He is not seen any other time of the year. This animal has a light attached to him. He starts from "Clarn hill" on to Toor bottoms and from there on to Ratheendaly. Then he goes on down to Scally's gate and from that he goes to Drumraney old church.
