- There was once a man and he said that there were a ghost coming to his house and he said he came every night at twelve o clock. The ghost came this night and was dancing round the house. He made tea for himself The man heard the noise and he got up and who was in it but one of the men that was staying with him and he dressed himself like a ghost. The man of the house was happy when it was not a ghost that was coming to his house
The old people say when the dust rise in the road that fairies are in it and they say that it right to say God speed them.
