  2. Lights

    Share Share Post
    One night about three years ago the Hartnetts who lived in Gardenfield were going to the fair in Drom and they saw a bright light shining over near Mrs. Dowling's house. They said to themselves that it was very early Mrs. Dowling was up. Mrs. Dowling saw the same light that night moving up around Harnett's house then it came down and it went into the fort and disappeared. That happened before Mr. Harnett's death.
