    One night a man was at a wake. During the wake the man saw that the man that was waking was sitting beside him all the time. The man was afraid to go home that night. He got into a Settlebed in the house to sleep that night and every minute a man left his hand down on his face. He said something white was walking around the floor all night. The man went home and was dead in a week after. The people thought the man came back for him.
