  2. One night about one o'clock, Mrs. O'Reilly was standing at her own door, and all of a sudden she heard tearing and knocking of walls. She believes it was the dead hunt. When she woke in the morning no harm was done.

  3. The Banshee.
    One night one of the Coughlins of the Ferrybridge, heard the Banshee coming up along the line. She came up by the old road from Ferrybridge to Clarina. She was singing, and he said he never heard nicer. She also went around Cragbeg house.
