- There was a ghost at Bridge fort called "Legg Woods". He would let no one pass and the people were afraid to go by night or day. At last they went to the priest, and he told the Ghost he'd settle him between the froth and the water at Johnstown's bridge for five hundred years. When the priest said the words, Legg Woods said "After Five hundred years, I'll make walls of Johnstown ring" When the priest heard this he settled the ghost for ever, but the priest, himself died soon after.
