  1. The Coincidence of a Dream

    Share Share Post
    Personal experience of W J MacDonald, Kilmuckridge aged 55.
    I dreamed one night that I was in a motor car following a funeral and that en-route to the cemetery, the hearse behind which I was only a few yards, pulled up.
    I looked out to discover the cause of the stop - so unusual - I thought at a funeral on a straight Country road. I saw (in my dream) a man get down from the hearse, bearing a wooden cross, which he placed near a 'skeac' tree
    There were numerous other similar crosses
