- Stories were common in olden days but very seldom one would hear a story at the present day.
But I have heard a story about a ghost.
One night about twelve o'clock when all the people were in bed in a certain house, a light was around the house by neighbours nearby.
The people who saw the light, began to shout and awoke the people of the house. The people of the house listened for some time, and noise was heard in the kitchen.
The woman of the house got up and nothing was to be seen. She was frightened and went to bed again, and after an hour or so, she heard the same noise again.
She did not know what to do. But she waited until morning and when she got up, there was nothing to be seen. But the same noise was heard the following night.- Collector
