    on Cluth and others went to play cards also. If they went home individually they met the apparition of headless man. He was supposed to be warning against cards. Tom broke rule that they should go home together.
    Once he was going across the bridge on the Cluth Lane. Roar of wind came out from under the bridge and lifted him off his feet and hurled him to the other side of road. He never went again.
