“My father saw the banshee one time. He was eating his supper one night at Robby Bennets of Cushinstown.”
My father saw the banshee one time He was eating his supper one night at Robby Bennets of Cushinstown. Robby B. came in and said to him "Did you ever see the banshee." My father said said he did know whether he did or not. Robby said to him "Come out here now and you will hear her" He went out and he heard her. They went down to see her. There was a big hole in the priest's field and they knew that she was near that hole and they went up easy to the hole and she was sitting down under a tree and she combing her hair.- Collector
