One night in the fourties the was a house on the land where my friend's house is. There was a girl who lived there, her name was Eliza and she was 16. She had a a boy-friend that was a drunk. One night Eliza was up in the attic seaching for some blankets. Her boy-friend stormed up the stairs; he was drunk. He thought she dumped him, he started yelling and cursing. Eliza backed to the window. He pushed her down three stories to her death. He buried her in a shallow grave near the house. Then he walked across the creek and the next morning when his body was found his throat had been slit with his own knife Eliza's body was never found so she was missing and presumed dead. All that happend July 21, 1947. 50 years later there was a party going on at my friends house, we walked down to the road near were her house once stood, we saw a shadowy figure across the street, we ran back to the house was it Eliza we saw? Was it Eliza's parents that killed her boy-friend? We presume that the only way Eliza and her boy-friend's ghost could rest is if somehow they can meet together and forgive each other. But that proves imposible because ghost cannot cross water. Source news-paper clippings 1948... How it changed my life:Everytime I see her grave where her house once stood.
