- Many strange things happened in Rostellan long ago. One night as the game keeper was coming from work he saw a figure. It was a priest. He came towards the game keeper and made signs to him. The game keeper lost his senses when he saw the priest open a door in a beech tree and take out a Chalice and a Ciborium surrounded by a blaze of light.
The letters T.I.C. (others say T.M.D) were seen on it. These letters meant thy master is dead. A little later the game keeper died. The game keeper and his master were buried next day.- Collector
