    'Galway was made to appear in the castle where this lady stayed.
    One night he appeared to her and she got frightened. She begged of a priest to send away the ghost and promised him a sum of money if he did so but he refused to take it.
    At any rate he succeeded in sending him away and Lady Ashton gave the priest a horse as a reward for his goodness.
    Next morning the priest went to see the horse which was in the stable and to his great surprise the animal was dead.
