    standing on a stump of a tree. When he was going away from the tree he heard a voice saying "You hunted me more than the night I was killed here" The man ran as fast as he could and a big calf ran out after him. The man went home and got holy water to shake over the ghost. When the dawn of day came the ghost disappeared but when twelve o'clock came that night the ghost started.
