Story about Water-Horse [duchas:4691217]
One time a man was feeding his cattle on the side of Glenan Lake. He saw a nice horse feeding in the field. He lifted the rope that he had tying a load of hay for his cattle. He went as far as the horse and caught him. He brought him home to his own house and worked him. The horse was very nice and a great worker. This day he brought the horse to the lake for a drink of water. When the horse reached the lake he gave a leap and caught the man and ate him, and he leaped into the lake.
