   Once upon a time there was a man coming home from ceiledheing. He had to come by an old ruin of a house where there was supposed to be a ghost. When he was coming by he saw a very tall white man and he was very much afraid. He kept going on when he was a bit on he looked behind and he could see someone moving along the ditch near to where he was. He went on once more and when he was coming near his home he looked behing again but he could see nothing. He went in and ate his supper and went to bed.
