  1. A wife and her husband lived in the Green. One night her husband was out late, so she went as far as Caseys corner to wait for him.
    About twelve o'clock she heard a step coming up the Blackroad. When the step came near she found out it was a pries, who had died some time beforehand.
    He went over to the church and went in, and came out again. He went over to the clerks home and brought the clerk off with him.After that the priest went down the road again. Her husband returned home some time afterwards.
