Written by William O'Neill, Walkin Street, Kilkenny:
"I got the following story from my grandfather, who lives with us at home...
Halloween night four years ago there was a man by the name of William Talbot passing by Saint James' graveyard in Callan when he heard a queer noise. He stopped and listened for a while. Then he heard the noise coming nearer. Mister Talbot was getting afraid and was going to run when he heard a voice telling him not to be afraid that it was a holy soul. Talbot did not wait to hear any more. He took to his heels and ran and did not stop until he got home."
