  1. There is an old story told around this district about a man named Dan Healy. One night this man went out for a walk. It happened that he went into a field where there was a Fort which is now the property of Mr. Ellis. As he was just coming near the Fort he heard lovely music. He listened for a moment but after a while he got nervous and ran away. The music followed him into his own yard. The man went in home and his brother came out and locked the doors. The two of them went to bed and heard no more music.
