Story One night about a year ago a band of tinkers were encamped on Clarke's Avenue. During the night one of the women got sick and she got up and lit a fire. It was not long till she heard a terrible noise and she looked down the avenue and saw a big charabanc coming at a terrible rate up the avenue. When it was passing by she saw that it was filled with men. They were eating and drinking and she could hear them laughing. When the charabance was passed the woman saw a blue light behind on it.
