- (continued from previous page)killed in the battle.
The morning after the battle there were fishermen out fishing. They saw boat after boat comming towards them, one in each boat and they were dressed in white.
The fishermen spoke to them but no answer came from the men in the boats and they disappeared. People say that they were the ghosts of the men who were killed at the battle of Fontonoy who were comming home for the last time to see their native land.- Informant
