THE CHOWAN HERALD
SpMdy R«t«ri
Is D«MR4«Rt
Or Taxpayer
GREENSBORO -
Incorrect or illegible
addresses on tax returns
can delay refunds, the
Internal Revenue Service
cautioned today.
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.

American Folklore. One
project centered around a
Folklore Collection, which
included ghost stories and
superstitions obtained from
people who live in this area.
In addition to their studies
in the classroom some
students visited the Martin
House near Jamesville. This
house is said to be haunted
by the spirit of a German
man who shot himself in one
of the rooms.
The overnight trip was
supervised by Miss Ellen
Jackson, English teacher at
the Academy. The other
chaperons were Mr. and
Mrs. Steve Wilds and Mr.
and Mrs. Frank Moore.

in James ville and then went
to the Martin House to
prepare their sleeping
equipment and food for the
night. 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.
After hotdogs and drinks
were served as a snack, Mr.
and Mrs. Moore, who live
near Jamesville, took some
of the students to see some
spooky landmarks.
The group visited the

screaming bridge, a place
where a man supposedly cut
off his wife’s head and threw
it over the bridge into the
water. 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.
