- Some years ago there was a castle in Williamstown. It was owned by a man named Hunt. There were tenants living in houses on this man's land. He evicted all the tenants out of the houses and he sold the land to Fetherston. He left the castle and went to some foreign country. After a few years a man named Dawson removed away the ruins of the castle and there is not a trace of it now.
