“I had one daughter who was very holy.”
(continued from previous page)father and I had the work done we went to see her. We were standing near the bed and she said "One of you three must sleep with me to-night." I said, "which one of us? and she said, "I'm not going to say which one of you" I went into the bed with her.
Her grandmother was talking to her and promising her lots of nice things if she got better. "I don't want any boots" She said, "[?] but I'm going to get a lovely drive on a white horse"
And it was by a white horse her coffin was taken to the grave yard three days after wards.
