    tea. John went out and left Willie in the house and Willie thought that he would go home and when he was going along the road he saw a black object rolling along the road. It rolled into a field at Glasha and it rolled across the road again at the foot of Maheramore Road. It made an awful noise when it was going down into the ground and it moved him some distance. About a week after that he died.
