   scorn rode home.
   As he was passing a place called Letterdive he noticed a calf floating in the air on one side of him and the most peculiar thing about it was it had no legs whatsoever. The landlord got off his horse with fear and he entered a house near by as though for a drink. The "bean an tige" was inside and she noticed the cold sweat on his face. She asked him what was the matter with him but he made no reply whatsoever. He left for his horse again but he was not gone far when the calf without the legs appeared once more. He made the horse gallop but the calf still kept at his side and when he stopped the calf stopped also.
   At last with the dint of fright he beat his horse and closed his eyes until he arrived at his own house. Then he jumped off his mount and he ran to his bedroom. When he entered his bedroom he fell into a dead faint from which he never recovered. In the morning he was found dead with a print off a hoof on his chest. After he was buried a calf was seen in his room and around his house. That man paid dearly for evicting the poor widow and her family.
