- Once upon a time a man had a sick horse, one night he took him out for a walk, it was a very bright night, when the man came as far as Crosserlough crossroads he saw a dead coach coming over at Crosserlough graveyard.
The horse frightened and the man brought him home and put him in the stable.
Then he went into the house and got his brother.
These men had two bull dogs because they had a wicked bull and they were very wicked also.
They brought the dogs with them and they stayed behind the ditch.
When the coach came up they let loose the dogs and they ran home yelping and barking. The men were very much afraid
The coach went back to where it came form and disappeared.(continues on next page)- Collector
