    It is said that a certain woman of this locality died some time ago and before she died she willed her clothes to her grachild. The clothes were too long for the granchild and she shortened them to fit herself.
    Some time afterwards the grandmother was seen by another woman and the clothes were entirely too short for her.
    It is said, that tis wrong to alter a dead persons clothes.
