  1. The Dead Coach

    Share Share Post
    Long ago where Mrs Jackson, Cam Edgeworthstown is living now a dead monk was supposed to go that road at 1 o'c in the night the horses were heard galloping along the road, the coach wheels rattelling the coach man's whip cracking.
    The coach would run from a certain place on the road and then when it came to an other certain place on the road it would vanish.
