    on the snow and the ghost went away a few yards from Johnny.
    He did this till he had the ghost about a hundred yards out the road, and then it disappeared from his sight. Johnny walked home hard then. There is a man named Anderson living there at present, and they say the ghost is there yet.
    Johnny McCafferty told my father this story, and he told it to me.
