- There was a well there long ago. The water in it was so good that all the people wanted to get it. The man that owned the well was dying and he told the people that he would mind the well when he would die.
The people didn't obey his orders and he came and hit one of the people. The water was haunted and they didn't use it anymore.- Collector
