    Share Share Post
    John Gannon worked for Mr. Crawford of Croghan, Kildallon, about thirty years ago. Mr. Crawford shot himself. Afterwards, every time when John Gannon was driving the horses over Croghan bridge Mr. Crawford's ghost would meet him and lead him into the stable then he would disappear.
