- There was an old man living near this place won time named Jimmy the Ripper. He was small, with a great hump on him.
Jimmy died. At that time they used have pipes and tobbacco and snuff at the wakes, but that custom had been done away with for years.
When Jimmy died they had to put a weight on his chest and tie him down with a rope, on account of the hump, in order to keep him straight.
