“One night my father was coming home from Mr. Brosnans.”
One night my father was coming home from Mr. Brosnans. He made a short cut through our own fields When he came to the Fort-field he heard the gate rattling and he saw two men riding horses going around the Fort. My father had a dog with him and he ran home. He called him but he would not come back. The ghosts came off the horses and walked around beside the horses and then they disappeared.
