20th July 1938

About one hundred years ago there was a ship going from Ireland to some-other foreign countries. It was filled with people. When the journey was almost ended a girl looked out the window of the ship and she saw another girl in the water. She could only see her neck and shoulders. She called out saying that some-one was drowning. The captain of the ship looked out and saw the girl combing her hair. He said she was a mermaid.
The captain said to the girl who saw the mermaid first that if she went near water again before that day twelve months that she would get drowned. One day she was going for water she got drowned.
