    until evening then it stopped and to their surprise of the people there was nothing wrong. There was not even a black spot on the walls.
    The fire started at the same time very day and in the evening nothing was wrong. One day they got a priest to bless it and it never went on fire again.
    The people think it was an evil spirit. Anyway the house never went on fire after it was blessed.
