    named Mathew Cheevers was bringing in the cows in the afternoon two beautiful men came out to him and brought him under the hill. They opened a door in the side of the hill as he imagined and took him to a beautiful room where he was asked to partake of food which he thought was the same as what he had at home. After spending a long time under the hill he was let out and when he returned home he told the story to his wife but she did not believe him. Many people went to the hill afterwards but saw nothing.
