“Years ago a woman named Mrs. Delaney lived in a house in Muckalee. She was married and she had two children. One of the children was very delicate and one night it died.”
(continued from previous page)he ran into the room where the child was waking. The little carriage went up and into the room where they were all at the wake. All the people rushed into corners to hide. Some of them went in under the bed where the child was waking. With that a small little man got out of the carriage and took away the child. It went down the stairs and out of the same door and they never heard of the child again.
