There was a certain house and one man living in it, every night a Ghost used appear to him and sit near him by the fire, the man used never speak to it and when the man used go to bed the Ghost used disappear. One night the man spoke to him and the Ghost said, that is what I wanted, to have someone talk to me. Then the Ghost went away he never appeared again, but the man died after a few days.
