  1. A Story

    One evening as I was sitting in my grandmother's we were talking about things that are seen at night.

    One evening as I was sitting in my Grandmother's we were talking about things that are seen at night and my Uncle Patrick said, "You are talking about lights and things but at the top of the coal hill down there, there's something queer. Every dark night a light appears, comes up the road a bit and two more blue lights branch out of it, and all three come up to my meadow slap, turn and go right back. You'll see them from the door here.
