- In the downland of Tullycleavan there ws a child names Charley Mc Govern in the cradle for seven years . One day his father went to the forge to get a loy laid. When he came home the child told him that the loy was not laid right and he told him togo back and get it made right.
The father went back to the forge and he told the blacksmith what the child had told him "Well" said the smith "when you go home run in a great hurry and say "the fort is on fire" The father did what the blacksmith told him , he ran in and said the fit was on fire. When the child heard that it jumped out of the cradle and he shouted " Oh! my wife and children will be all burned " he ran out the chimney and he never was seen again .- Collector
