Beside the road, a little way off from the house, there was a spot that had an evil name all over the country, a little hill covered closely with copsewood, with a great craggy rock on top, from which, on stormy nights, strange and fearful sounds had often been heard shrill voices, and screams, mingled with loud fiendish laughter; and the people believed that it was the haunt of air-demons.
Of all the different kinds of goblins that haunted the lonely places of Ireland in days of old, air-demons were most dreaded by the people. They lived among clouds, and mists, and rocks, and they hated the human race with the utmost malignity. His farm lay on the southern slope of the Ballyhoura Mountains, along which ran the open road that led to his house.
He never forgot this warning, and he was very careful to keep himself straight, both because he was naturally a good man, and for fear of the air-demons. Some time before the occurrence about to be related, one of Fergus's children, a sweet little girl about seven years of age, fell ill and died.
