- (ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)repaired by the County Council. Passing home that same evening I saw the wheel of a car on the bridge - about the size of the wheel of a donkey-cart, painted red. Nobody could throw any light upon the presence of the wheel on the bridge that particular evening. Being in Carlow on the following Saturday night, I determined to return home by Aughmora & solve the mystery if possible. When about 40 yards from the bridge my bicycle stopped 'dead.' When I reached the ground I examined the wheels & brakes & found the machine in perfect working order. I again mounted. The bike ran smoothly until I was firmly fixed on saddle, then it stopped again as suddenly & as mysteriously as before. Nothing I wound my beads round my hand & tried again. Again the bicycle refused to work, and I bate a hasty retreat. An old friend of mine, Michael Iveton, of Kellistown, was amazed when in response to my knocking, he admitted shortly after midnight a young man, pale as death & covered with a lather of perspiration. He immediately remarked my pallor - so unusual in my case - & my evident trepidation. Telling him all that had happened, he congratulated me on my lucky escape. I heard nothing more about the ghost since. I saw nothing on that Sat. night and I may add that at the time I still had my Confirmation pledge.(leanann ar an chéad leathanach eile)
