“There was a man in Shannagh that had a fort on his land.”
75
There was a man in Shannagh that had a fort on his land. When he would be out late at night he would see light in the fort. Whenever he used to see the light he would go down to the fort the next morning and he used to see the fort all covered with little pieces of cloth where the fairies used to be making things at night.
