- Ghost Story
There was a family in Ryann and they were living near the shore. They could not sleep any night. They heard the howling of something like a dog. One day when they were fishing they heard the howling again. The next thing they saw was a mot-man. He appeared near the boat. The men were dead afraid of him. He was clothed in a white garment and he had hair like a common man. He drew near the boat again and one of the me hit him with an oar and killed him.
