- Mother told me that as she was coming home from school one evening long ago with her sister and brothers. They saw a little small woman, with long hair stretching down her back.
She was wailing and caoining very loudly and combing her hair at the same time. They stood to look at her, and as they did so, she looked at them with very pitiful eyes. They then ran home afraid of their lives, and on their way they met their uncle, and told him. He went back along with them but there was nothing to be seen. He did not believe them then nor neither did their mother or father.
Mother told me that as being a fact and Uncle Peter and Aunt Sarah can remember it still.- Collector
