To the Editor of the Weekly Irish Times, 1st July 1893.

Sir - Few people, I fancy, will agree with "Layton Hill's" explanation of the Banshee. If the howling of dogs and screeching of cats give rise to the belief in its existence we ought to be a very superstitious people. There is not a night but those sounds are heard through the country, with very few remarks about the banshee arising therefrom. Moreover, how can animals be affected at the death of a human being?
Yours, &c.,
M. Cahal Mor.
