    Went out his wife put on a green dress and went to the dance.
    When she went back she left on the long green dress so that when her husband returned he knew then that she had been at the dance.
    He got so angry that he threw her down the stairs and killed her.
    The blood stain can be seen there yet. Her ghost is supposed to appear at two o’clock every Hallow Eve night.
