  1. There was a man living in Termonfeckin long ago. This man had a habit of taking a short cut through the Churchyard. There was another man who wanted to frighten him. So one night this man with a white sheet went into the Churchyard. He lay behind the hedge. He heard the man coming through the Churchyard singing and he walked out in front of him. The man saw him and said, "hurry up big ghost or the little ghost will catch you."
    He looked round and he saw a little ghost and he fainted.
