“On the Tallow Youghal road at the place called Redforge a man named John Connors one lived.”
(continued from previous page)to his destination. When he reached it, his brother noticed how nervous he was. He asked the reason and when told he told him to have a bit of sense. He also gave him a stimulant and set him in the road home. On returning he again had to pass the spot where he had seen the man. When he came near he again saw the man and this time he recognised him as a man who had died suddenly some time previous. When he reached his destination he made sure that he would not be near the place again late at night.
On the same spot some time later a man was driving a priest, probably on a [?] call. The man saw the stranger standing at the same spot but when he pointed him out to the priest, he could see nothing. When they reached home and put the horse into the stable they noticed that the horse was covered with white froth though the driving that he got would not cause any sign of sweat.- Collector
