    Tormy and William Allen had to leave the road to let the headless coach pass them.
    Bernard Murray used to sleep along and he had to bring a bottle of holy water with him some nights to keep the hosts out of his room. He could not sleep at night with the noise of ghosts going up and down the stairs. John Mac Loughlin a famous wit said it must be Guinesses ghosts or Gameson's spirits which were troubling Bernard Murray.
