    of James and he would not kill him if he would not marry the girl he was going to marry. James agreed and his brother was never seen for a while after.
    James after a year or so married the girl and they lived together for about three years after this. James brother appeared to him again and he said that he would destroy his lands and his crops. When James told the priest about this he came and blessed the house, land and crops. After this James brother was never seen again.
