  2. A Story

    Share Share Post
    Long ago three boys went to a wake in a house. They thought of a plan to tie a string round the dead girl's leg and when the people had the rosary said they pulled the string and the corpse moved. Everyone ran out of the room but one man went back and the girl was still there. The boys went home then and the people found out afterwards who did it.
