The Witch of Wamneylough and the Donegal Legends
In Donegal a witch is said to have been smothered by yeomanry after nine o'clock curbs on activity. Tales from local farmers recount foxed miracles and hare witches, with neighbors whispering of a hare transforming to milk cows. A veteran farmer narrates hunts, a black pig in a castle yard, and a tradition of eerie, storied countryside.

The Pig Vanished and a Castle's Luck Fades
A tale quotes a landowner and a servant debating a missing pig said to have vanished without a trace. A pig weighing seven hundred weight supposedly left no tracks. The servant suspects the pig fled after hearing talk of killing it, while the owner laments a ruined lawsuit and misfortune at Castle Francis. The piece then shifts to praise for Green's August Flower remedy for dyspepsia and liver complaints, claiming three doses prove its effects. The ad promotes sample bottles for ten cents.
