“In this village (Cloondergan) about 80 or 90 years ago there was a family by the name of Kelly...”
(ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)This particular November's night there was a crowd in Kelly's as usual and every one was carrying out some superstitious custom or another. There was one pishrogue that was never known to fail when carried out according to custom and that was for a girl to go out at midnight, run round a stack seven times carrying an open knife and at the seventh time to stick the knife in the stack saying "what is your name" Her future husband was then supposed to appear to her.
This night a young girl from the village did this. When she stuck the knife in the stack after, the seventh time round it she cried out "what is your name?" and commenced to run towards the kitchen door as was the custom.
Suddenly a big black dog- almost as big as a cow, jumped out of the stack and made after her as if to devour her. She managed to reach the kitchen where she fell flop in a faint. She never did a day's good from that day till she went into her grave.
