  1. Ghost Story

    Share Share Post
    Once upon a time there lived a woman and two sons and they were terrible drunkers and this night they put their mother out. She went down the town and when she reached the church hill she heard the coach coming after her. There were houses being built and she went in thinking the coach would go away, but it stayed there for an hour, and the woman died afterwards.
    Veronica O'Brien,
