“An old man who lived where the church is now, used to go to play cards in a house every Sunday night.”
An old man who lived where the church is now, used to go to play cards in a house every Sunday night. He had two horses, and this Sunday night as he was coming home with his horses. One of them jumped, and whatever the man said to him, the two horses jumped into the ditch. He shouted at them to come out, but instead a tall man stood in front of him and then disappeared. Afterwards, the old man found out, that it was his cousin who was dead. This happened at the church gate.
