“On Buggy's Hill there is a spirit.”
One night a man with a horse and car was passing down Buggy's Hill and the horse ran away. The man was nearly killed. Another night a priest was going to a sick man in Firoda. When he was going up Bugg's Hill the horse began to plunge with fear. Then the priest said to the spirit "you are there with your sheep's head on you but you will never harm anyone" The priest's horse went on then.
