“A woman was once dying and they sent for the priest.”
Story
A woman was once dying and they sent for the priest. All her children had died young. As the priest was coming along he met lights. One was a little behind the rest and was not as bright as the others.He asked why it was not up with the rest and it said it was not baptised. He baptised it then and it flew on with the rest. It is said that these lights were her dead children coming to meet her.- You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
