  2. There were two men living in Derrymore one time, and they were two friends. So one of the men died. He was about three months dead, and the live man was coming home from the well with a bucket of water, at about seven o’clock. When he came to the corner, the dead man appeared and he shook hands with his friend. The dead man had red clothes on him. The live man said three Hail Marys and while he was saying it, the man disappeared.
