- There is a rath in Killowen which is surrounded by earth and trees on top.
There was a man from Gusserane who had a half acre of grass. In the middle of the half acre there was a clump of bushes. One day he cut down the bushes. That night he was walking along the road with some other men. The man stopped to light his pipe while the other men went on. The men waited for him and wondered what was keeping him so long.
Then they someone shouting. They followed, and it went into a churchyard. When they entered the churchyard they found the man crushed to death between two tomb-stones.- Collector
