    (continued from previous page)
    called the ghost house. And every night about midnight there would be light seen in it. The old people of long ago say that those houses should not be moved; People say there is no ghosts out nowadays as the priests say prayers after mass to banish them away. If you interfer with a ghost or any other Spirit they will not interfer with you. Old people believe in all those stories as they say they all happened in days gone by.
