  1. Once up on a time there was a woman. She lived with her father and mother. One day the woman and her father and mother died.
    The woman would not let the Priest Anoint her. The Priest said he would not come to Anoint her until she would be nearly dead.
    When the Priest went the woman died. It is said the woman changes herself into a hare. She comes back to the house every night and sleeps there at night.
