- One night my great grandfather was passing Earlshill village. It was about 12 1/2 oc at night. He was walking fairly fast just near the little village when suddenly he heard a noise. He looked around and what was in it but the headless coach. he stood against the wall to let it pass. The horses and the men had no heads. The men were cracking their whips and my great grandfather could hear them plainly.
