- A long time ago a man was out visiting very late one night and he was walking across the fields and he came to a wall and a great many fairies came up and took him away to a house. The man had a hump and he asked the fairies to take it off him because he heard that they took a hump off a man before. The fairies took the hump from him and hung it up behind the door. Another man was out visiting and he had a hump also. He met the fairies and they brought him to a house and he asked them to take it off him. Then they took the other man's hump and put it on top of his own.
