Entry 66
I have heard mv great-aunt say that she was driving along a dark road once with her daughter. While driving along she struck a match to light her pipe. When she drove a little farther a man stepped out of the woods Wearing a full dress suit, a high silk hat, and grabbed the horse by the bridle. And rear as the horse would, he would not let him go. After holding the horse for about three or four minutes he let the horse go. My great-aunt explained this fact by saying that it must have been her father who Was dead and he wanted to warn her that she must not strike a match on a dark road because some danger might take place because of her doing so.
