    There was a man one time and he lived in Newtown. His name was Jamsie Byrne. He was coming home very late one night and he had to pass a lonely graveyard.
    Just as he was passing the style going into the graveyard a big black dog jumped out and followed him along the road beside the bicycle.
    The dog came along beside the bicycle until he came to some gateway and then disappeared.
