Summary:fairy towed "Oh, yes the fairies have to be watched out for. You can be fairy towed (told?). They're in the woods. Another old woman and myself were fairy towed one time when we were out berry picking. They keep making you go the wrong way. We went over windfalls and everything . always going in the wrong direction.

Mrs. R's accent is such that I am not sure. JH APR 1971 DNE-cit Not used Not used Not used [see also 'toler', 'tole', 'toll', 'told']
