- A long time ago there was a devil to be seen at a bridge and he would not allow anyone to pass after 12 o clock at night. The priest heard about it and asked some one to go with him and it was very hard to do but a boy went. The devil came out again. He would not go over to the priest but he stood and after a while he disappeared and he was never seen again.
