  1. One night Joe McNamee was going to the Cross'. It was about eleven o'clock. When he was about one mile from his house he saw a man standing in a gateway. He looked at the man and he thought he knew him. He spoke to the man but the man did not answer him. When he was coming from the Cross, he was standing at the same place. The man came out of every gap until Joe reached his own house. He said he would never go down that road after it got dark.
