Claare ny Gael 7th July 2024

Dorothy Manley has introduced us to Isaiah Cregeen, one of the seven Cregeen siblings. Isaiah is a Methodist preacher, and his wife is very proud to take her place in chapel on a Sunday. However, she doesn't welcome the presence of the youngest of the brothers, Martin - known to all as Fairy, and who gives his name to the collection of short stories, 'Fairy's Ground'.

Professor Van Helsing and Dr John Seward share a concern that Count Dracula will be able to know, from his connection with Mina Harker's mind, whatever she knows - including anything she's told or finds out about the friends' intention to hunt down and destroy the Count. Part of our Manx translation of the famous novel by Bram Stoker.
