A Story 20-5- 38
Long ago a man had to go to Ennis. On his way he had to cross a graveyard because he made a short- cut.When he put his foot on it he saw a beautiful house.A man who he well knew but was dead brought him in and he sat down.
He never before saw a more beautiful thing.Then the cock crew and all disappeared and he walked away.
