- There was once an old dancing mistress living in Gurtaderra her name was Mag Hakett. Her husband was a fiddler & and they had three goats named Capreoland, Gensey & Girleen. They used to travel around in an ass & car & the goats used follow them & always answer to their names. Mag & company used to lodge in neighbours' houses. The goats used to supply them with milk, but Mag had them trained to dance to the music of the fiddle. Every house in the locality where there was a dance or a wedding Mag & her husband were always sent for. She & the goats used to dance on a door.
