  1. The Bow

    Share Share Post
    One night there was a man coming up Green St. and there was a low-sized woman coming up in front of him. He was walking quickly and when he came near the womanm she vanished through a closed door.
    On another occasion, there were two men coming up by the Black Cow when a rabbit ran across the road and one of the men threw his hat in an attempt to catch it. The rabbit stopped and looked around and the man was terrified to see it had the face of a child. The man said that it was the "bow."
