- One upon a time there was a man and he was drunk every night. One night his son said he would give him a fright. The man was passing the churchyard one night and his son dressed up as a ghost and said "Where is my grave?" and the man said "This is a nice time of the night to be looking for your grave" and the ghost said again but the man said nothing but lashed out with his stick and killed him.
