Gleann an Chapaill  [duchas:4914393]

Is mar seo a deineadh an gleann so fadó, a deirtear. Thárla go raibh bean ag sábháil féir i bpáirc i-n aice le Cill-Achadh-Uí Liatháin. Tháinig tart uirthi. Chuaidh sí isteach go dtí an teampall ag lorg díghe. Níor éirigh léi. Sa deireadh dól sí roinnt fíona a bhí ar an áltóir. Láithreach baill deineadh capall sí, gleusadh fé céacht í agus treabh sí an gleann amach.
Deirtear go bhfeictear capall bán ann uair sa bhliadhain fós.
