    (continued from previous page)
    A man named Mr. Tainor owns the land he never ploughs the land. Thomas Callaghan has a house and garden on that land. He ploughed his garden and when he came to the bottom of it he ploughed up bones. On Halloween night strange sounds can be heard from the graveyard.
    One day a few men started to dig up one of the graves. When they started to open it a lot of the stones fell in and there were drops of blood on them.
