  1. One night there was a priest going on a sick call. It was about 3 o'clock in the night and it was very dark. When he was crossing a church yard, his horse stood and began to sweat. there was something standing before the horse that frightened him. It was about four when the thing went away. When the priest reached the house the person was dead.
