- (continued from previous page)a mile from the hill owned a cow which died a few days after calving. The owner did his best to rear the calf on the very small inadequate supplies of milk given by the kind neighbours. Yet the calf throve inexplicably.One night he heard a strange noise in the Bóitheach, and on going out to investigate he discovered a beautiful white cow suckling the calf. He followed the white cow till she reached what is now called "Cnocán na Bó Sidhe" where she disappeared.
