It is said that there was a Bean Sidhe in the village of Cross one time.
This Bean Sidhe would steal everything she could find from the people
of the village.
Every night she used to go to the graveyard wailing.
The people of the village were very much afraid of her. Every one in
the village would be indoors before twelve o'clock at night.
One of
the men of the village said he would go to the graveyard and see was it
the Bean Sidhe, who was stealing the things from the people. When he
went to the graveyard who was the Bean Sidhe but one of the women of the
village. She was making them afraid by her crying, and was stealing all
the things from the people.
