  1. (continued from previous page)
    dark, frosty Hallowe'eens night my grandfather R.I.P. was coming home from rambling. He was passing this field and, just as he was passing by the fort he saw a tall, palace made of silver and gold. He stood for a moment in amazement looking at the lovely mansion but in a moment it had vanished.
    There is a field know as "The Race Park" in Mr. Charles Whites farm. Long, long ago a races was held there.
