Editor’s Note: Count John de Salis gave these legends and they were written out by Evans-Wentz with the help of Rev J.F. Lynch

Under ordinary circumstances, as a very close observer of the Lough Gur peasantry informs me, the old people will  pray to the Saints, but if by any chance such prayers remain unanswered they then invoke other powers, the fairies, the goddesses Aine and Fennel [!?!], or other pagan deities, whom they seem to remember in a vague subconscious manner through tradition. Evans-Wentz 82-83
