  1. An Experience

    Share Share Post
    One night my grandfather was coming from Castlecomer with a horse and car. When he was near home something got into the back of the car. He could not see it, and the horse was hardly able to walk, or draw home the car. When he was going into his own gate, it got out and went away and the horse died in the house that night.
