If a taxpayer has moved since filing his or her tax return and has not informed the U. S. Postal Service of the new address, any refund due might not reach its destination. A taxpayer expecting a refund should file a change of address form with his or her local post office. Illegible handwriting on a return can also cause problems when it comes to issuing a refund check. One solution to this problem is for the taxpayer to use the peel-off label attached to the tax package mailed out by . the IRS. The taxpayer can make any name, address or social security number corrections right on the label. This way the IRS will know to whom and where to direct the refund.

Almost immediately they began to hear scarry sounds. Miss Jackson and Jesse heard thumping and knocking noises in the back room. The group talked to the Ouiji board and discovered the German’s spirit lived in the old piano in the house. The piano had recently been played by Mrs. Moore and Buck. While everyone in the group was sitting around the heater talking, Mrs. Moore and Buck heard the sound of a bell tinkling. No one else in the room heard the sound, but everyone was frightened when the story of the tinkling bell was related to them.

People have claimed to hear the woman screaming at night. However, the students heard nothing but the sound of running water. Mr. and Mrs. Moore also drove to a house where the windows go up at night if anyone enters. No one in the group dared get out of the car. On the way back to the haunted house the group took a detour down a dirt road, and looked for something called the “Jelly Monster.” As the story goes, the “Jelly Monster” is a mysterious form which once smashed into a car which was being driven down this road. The night was very cold, but everyone managed to survive because of their warm clothes, sleeping bags and numerous blankets. The trip was a great success, and everyone had a good time.
