Port St Mary Blacksmith
“A blacksmith in Croit-y-Kaaby, Port St. Mary, was asked to put a cross of iron on the grave to prevent the spirit from coming out, but it happened the ghos’ was out, and could not get in, and he was corree (angry) at that, and shouted : ‘Trog shoh’ (lift that), and the man has never done any good afterwards.”
