   A leiprechan was supposed to live under a bush in Pat Donohue's fort. Pat cut the bush and after that his mouth was twisted. Patrick McDonagh of Bouleyard took a cart of stones from a fort in Browne's field. He died in a few days time. Roughreens of Brownhall were cutting a lone bush a few years ago and when it was half cut it jumped over the fence. The men ran away.
   The Leiprechans it seems want milk. They took a cow down into Shanroy fort some twenty years ago. Some people went to pull the cow out of the hole. One of them, a man from Ballenaford died in a few days.
   Charlie Rooney of Rathduff was going to build a house on the 'pass' between two forts. He had four heaps of stones for the work ready on the spot. He found them scattered every morning.
