    ... Let me tell you Jim, I made the bastard’s life miserable if I didn’t get my way right up to our divorce.” “Yes, I know you did; you intimidated the hell out of him; he’s afraid of you Katherine. Acid tongue bitch or not you were honest with him.” “Will you please tell me about the mystery?” “The McNulty’s owned the house; John and Mary McNulty. They were in their mid sixties at the time and by all accounts very much in love.....like us,” and Jim kissed Kate’s hands. “It was on their 40th wedding anniversary; John gave Mary gold earrings. They drove into town to renew their wedding vows in Church, followed by a dinner with friends in the Church’s recreation hall. Mary still fit into her wedding dress and that is what she wore. There was a photographer at the party from the local newspaper. Their picture was in the paper the next day and the following day John’s obituary. By all witness accounts, John drove back to the church alone because Mary thought she accidently lost one of her earrings there. While John was driving into town there was a brief but severe thunder storm and the fuel tank beside the house was hit by lightning igniting it. When the Sheriffs, Volunteer Fire Department and neighbors arrived the house was engulfed in flames. They found John or the charred remains of him in the driveway. It was far too late for Mary, or so they thought and they just let it burn out. They sifted the burnt debris after they cooled and found nothing in the basement; no sign of Mary ...

Local legend tells that on the anniversary of John’s death, starting with his 41th Wedding Anniversary and ever since a woman in a white wedding dress has been seen by John’s grave.” “That’s quite a story, sweetheart. Has anyone actually talked to the apparition?” “No; as soon as anyone gets close Mary is gone; assuming it is Mary of course. Uncle Bob bought the property for the taxes and then he sold it to me.” “Is this property haunted?” “No not that I’ve heard?” “Do you believe in ghosts, Jim?” “I’ve never seen one. That being said I don’t go out of my way to look for them either.” “Jim?” “Yes Kate.” “Is the motorcycle in the barn in operating order?” “It should be, yes.” “May we ride it tomorrow? I’ve ridden on one.” “Yes, there are several paths and/or farm machinery access roads intersecting the farm and county roads.” “Can we go look at it now?” “Not tonight my love. I’m thinking of turning in. I have two helmets and one should fit you” he said as Kate got off his lap and stood. “The first thing after breakfast we’ll go for a ride” and he took Kate’s hand in his. “Let’s try ...
