    at Knock first mass was going on and when he came to Kilrush he was in time for last mass at eleven o'clock.
    John Grogan, Carhuefree, Kilimer, Co. Clare.
    Was going to Labasheeda when he saw a ghost running in under a bridge. There were two other men in the car with him and they betted with him that he would not follow the ghost in under the bridge to see if it was a real one. So he followed it in and caught it by the hair of the head and pulled it out. It was about one o'clock in the night at this time but anyway he went into a neighbouring house and found the woman was only silly. The name of the bridge is Droichead ath na long.
    Frank Greene, Farihy, Kilkee, Co. Clare.
