  1. There was a wake at John Ryan's Quakerstown, There was a man there at the wake who bet five shillings that he would go up to qakerstown church yard and bring down a wreath and a skull. So the man bet that he would not. He went up and was out for a while. He went to a grave and got a wreath and he went an other grave and got a skull and came back to the house with the skull and wreath.
    So they gave him his his money.
