warrenpoint on fire

An old lady of around eighty who lived in Ballyoonan described a fairy she had once seen as being about two feet tall, dressed in a green suit and wearing a black hat and buckled shoes. Sh tried to catch him as he jumped along in front of her ‘from tuffet to tuffet’ and when she nearly had him, he called out that Warrenpoint was on fire and she looked down to see. When she looked back the fairy had vanished (Foster, Ulster 67)
