On Dreaded Apparition Is the Fairy
Horit, Whos Mission Is 0n of
Malic Tho Lur of th Peuktsn and
th Song of th Fir-Darrlg.
No wonder strango superstitions tin
gcr In the scattered hamlets by the sea
or In the lonely cabins on the rooky is
lands rouud the Iron coast, for ou win
tor niguts when too mighty surges
break thundering against tho towering
cliffs and the storm wind wails weird
ly through tho hollow caverns ami lvlod
ruins, where the deserted fortresses of
the powerful chieftains of bygone days
look down on the foaming waves
and the cry -of the gulls and curlew
echoes over rock shores and across
wide loughs ami estuaries, one might
well fancy that the sounds were the
voice of giants or wizards doomed for
their sins to wander forever round this
coast, the mournful wall of the "ban
shee" or of "the Wblto Lady of the
Cliffs" a famous Munster apparition.
Women and children, crouching over
the fire of driftwood, pent or furze
branches flaming (ltfully on the ohmi
hearth, cross themselves as a louder
wall rings through the darkness or a
rumbling sound Is heard that to their
ears seems to be the rolling of the
wheels of "the headless coach" or
"death conch." so called In the County
Cork because horses ami driver art
Supposed to be headless. Tho coach
man Is the dulluhan that Is, a dark
or sullen person, n goblin of most
mnlignunt (imposition.
This phantom Is said to "follow"
many old Munster families, the vehi
cle lumbering heavily up the avenue
and stopping nt the front door when
ever a death Is about to occur In the
house. I know numbers of persons
and not by any means merely unedu
cated peasants who are persuaded
that they Lave heard the rumbling of
the headless coach. Needless to say.
the noise of a heavy cart at night
along an unfrequented road Is suffl
clent to terrify superstitious people
Into believing that they have beard the
death coach. Tbey take good care not
to see It!
Another much dreaded apparition Is
the phooka, or fairy horse, a very ma
licious spirit that Is said to appear In
the shape of a beautiful coal black
steed with fire darting from his eyes
and nostrils.
Occasionally he adopts the form of
a black bull or goat, and sometimes he
appears as an awful compound of sev
eral black animals horse, bull, goat
and ram. In his equine form be Is
said to amuse himself by enticing soli
tary travelers whom he meets after
dark into mounting him, and as he In
variably looks like a "nate cut of a
horse," such as every Irishman appre
ciates, he Is said to succeed very fre
quently in his nefarious plan.
The instant the rider Is on his back
the elfin steed dashes off madly through
stream, lake and bog hole, thicket and
coppice, hedge and ditch, marsh and
ravine, till the terrified mortal, drench
ed, torn and bruised, shrieks for mercy
or perhaps remembers to gasp out a
prayer, when with a furious bound the
phooka flings him off, preferably Into a
muddy pool or a furze brake, and darts
away, leaving the unhappy rider to
pick himself up, Invariably finding that
he is miles out of bis way.
Sudden falls are attributed to this
malignant sprite, and many a man who
has lost bis way or met with an acci
dent coming home from fair or funeral
on a dark night Is convinced for the
rest of his days that he has been led
astray by the phooka, although his
troubles were possibly due to a yet
more potent spirit. Dangerous rocks
and crags are often called "carrig-na-phooka"
(rock of the phooka), just as
deep pools or holes In a river or bog
are "poul-na-phooka." A beautiful wa
terfall In Wicklow bears this name.
The "poukeen," as he Is sometimes
called. Is also said to adopt the form
of a great black bird or a bat. The
latter Is greatly feared by the country
folks. In the bat form he Is supposed
to lure people Into climbing lvled walls
and towers, from which he throws
them, an Idea which seems to bear
some relation to the vampire stories of
eastern Europe. He is the pouke of
Spenser, and from breaking the necks
of the unwary to spoiling the black
berries on Michaelmas eve In order to
vex the archangel there are few enor
mities of which he Is not guilty, ac
cording to popular belief.
"Puck, the household fairy," of Eng
lish legend finds his Irish counterpart
In the 13r-darrlg, or red man, a mer
ry goblin, very similar to the Scotch
red cap, or brownie. lie is, said to be
dressed In scarlet. The nttlre of most,
of the Irish fairies Is supposed to con
sist of a green suit, red shoes, long
while stockings and a red or black cap
with an eagle's leather. This little red
clad sprite Is said to be remarkable for
the extreme beauty of his voice, which,
according to the now fast disappearing
race of story tellers, Is "like the sound
of the waves," "the music of angels or
the warbling of birds." , A sweet voice
Is highly esteemed In Erin, where a
girl possessing that 'excellent thing lu
women" Is said to be able to "coax the
birds off the bushes." New Ireland Re
