    (continued from previous page)
    grave so one Sunday when the people at a Mass some great miracle happened. When the people were hearing Mass inside in the church a heavy noise was heard on the roof. Hearing this the people were terrified and they ran in all directions. Some ran up the the alter, and more ran out, but the priest told them to be easy. The heavy noise came three times upon the roof. The reason for this was because the priest was buried in his wrong grave, so they had to bury him in his correct grave.
