    When he was near home his lamp went out and the front wheel of the bike hit a big stone and the man on the bike was fired into a field. His leg and arm were broken and never were the same. He told another man about the Ghost and he told him it was a man’s brother who was killed away in some foreign country and that he was often seen there looking through the bushes at his living brother’s house
