  1. Jack's Bush

    Share Share Post
    One night a man was coming from town with a side car when some thing jumped up on the car beside him. He could (could) not see it but he knew it was on the car with him. When he went out a long way on the new line he came to a bush on the road-side that very body calls Jack's Bush. The think came off the car at that bush and he never saw a sight of it again.
