  1. One night a man was coming home from rambling.
    When he came near Drumenny crossroads he saw a woman standing there and she was dressed all in white.
    When he reached the spot where he had seen her standing he could see nothing atall [sic].
    He went back a bit from the place and again he saw her, but when he went to the place where he saw her standing he could see nothing.
    Everyone who passed this crossing after dark are scared by this ghost.
