    Once upon a time there was a priest going on a sick call for nine miles and it was late at night. He asked a man to go with him it was a side-car. they had. On their journey the priest said to the man do you see anything on the side of the road." the man said no well let you come to the other side of me" said the priest.
    The man did as he was told and they continued their journey. On their return home they stood at a lodge for the night. When the priest went to bed he heard noise in the kitchen it was like the noise of chairs being thrown here and there
