  1. One night Edward Wade was going up the road on a bicycle. When he was going by the ditch of Mr. O'Neill's lawn something caught the bicycle and he had to get off. He could not wheel the bicycle it was like something was holding it. He looked around and he could see nothing. Two lights passes him by and then what ever was catching the bicycle let it go and he got up on it again and was able to proceed home.
