    About an old tree.
    1. We have a fielf and it is called the little meadow. There used to be a littl meadow there long ago. There was an old plum tree there also.
    2. THere used to be music heard in that tree. There used to be a ghost seen on top of that tree. The tree is cut down now.
    3. A man lived in our village by the name Reddon. He cut that tree and the ghost used to be seen for a year after and the music heard. It is about three hundred years ago.
