Summary

How Fearchar met a witch while spending the night in a bothy.

Fearchar was spending the night in a bothy. A little fair haired girl came in. She was afraid of Fearchar's dog and asked him to tie a hair from her head round the dog's neck. Fearchar tied it round a post instead. When he turned round, the girl had become huge. He was able to set the dog on her, and she disappeared in a shower of sparks.
