- Long ago there was a man whose name was Mr Thomas. He was very young. He was playing chasing with some comrades in a shed on Tubbermore Avenue. His comrades locked him in the shed. The comrades nearly fainted when they saw a white shadow in the shed and they let Mr Thomas out of the shed. They went round telling the people what they saw, and the people told them that a man committed suicide in the shed and his shadow is still seen. Mr Thomas lived in St Patrick's Road. He died about fourteen years ago.
