- A very very long time ago, there was a woman living in Connagh.
She owned a little girl and everytime the mother would tell her to do anything the child would slap her mother into the face with her hand.When the girl came to about the age of seven years she died, and it said that she was buried in a rath on the road between Haytown and Connagh.And after she had been buried a hand grew up over the earth and the mystery of it was, no one could see the hand except the child's mother.The woman went to the priest of the parish and told him about the hand. He told her that she should slap the hand as many times as the child slapped her. Then it would go down into the earth.Mrs Cusack, Haytown, Fethard-On-Sea- Informant
