  1. A ghost story
    One night when my uncle was going home from a fair with another man e heard something like a mowing- machine over him in the air. He asked the man that was with him did he hear anything and he said he did not. They heard it again and when they looked up they saw a thing like a motor car flying through the air and over their heads. It was at the gate beside Heavy's that they saw it. When they stood looking at it, it disappeared and was seen no more.
