- There is a ghost at our turn. It is there for a long time. One night when, Jack Fitzsimons was coming home from Mullagh, a round thing, like an umbrella came out from the side of the road at the turn. It fluttered in his face. He could not get past it, and he had to come up to our house. He was afraid to go home till two o'clock in the morning. He was afraid ever after to pass the spot at night.
