We've been introduced to the Cregeen family in the first of Dorothy Manley's collection, 'Fairy's Ground : Homely Tales', told by her narrator, a young man training to be a teacher. The second tale concentrated on Joshua Cregeen, and in the third we become better acquainted with his brothers, Jonah and Benjamin. The figure of Matthew Cregeen, better known by all as 'Fairy' for his small stature and nature, features across the stories, though not necessarily prominently.In our episode from the translation into Manx of Bram Stoker's 'Dracula', Professor Van Helsing has been describing how they got information about the ship that Count Dracula has sailed out of London on - something of a colourful experience in itself.
