- There was a magic hare in Garryfine Bruree. It is said that she did harm to a man named Jack Shea. One night he did not go to bed. He went out to the cowhouse about 12 or 1 o'clock. When he was going in the door of the cowhouse he met a hare coming out the door. He had two greyhounds with him. The greyhounds followed her. She turned into a woman when she was going in her own window. The greyhounds took a piece of her flesh and the mark was there ever after mad she became known as "Kitty the Hare."It is said that a witch lived near Charleville for a while. She was called by the name of "Nora Leesh". She could tell you where you came from and who you were. She could cure any disease.
