Legend Two

Read this English legend and do the tasks after it.

The Invisible Ghost

Chester

Eastgate Street

Chester is a town in the northwest of England. It has many historical buildings. One of them is the house in Eastgate Street. Now it is a shop where people buy chocolates. The legend says that there is a ghost in the shop. It is Chester's most famous ghost known as Sarah. Nobody ever saw her. But though invisible she is, the ghost is very active. The legend has it that Sarah was a charming young woman. She fell in love with a man who left her on their wedding day. Sarah was so unhappy that she returned to her home in Eastgate Street and hanged herself. Nobody knows exactly when this happened.

What we know is that she does not like it when people don't believe that she haunts the house. A tourist from the United States once said that ghost stories were stupid. A moment later somebody's hand pushed him down the stairs. Sarah doesn't like it when people speak about her unhappy love affair, either. On St Valentine's Day shop assistants didn't see boxes of chocolates in their usual places on the shelves but found them on the floor of the shop. They couldn't understand it and were very much surprised. How they got there is still a mystery.

A burglar, who once broke into the shop at night and took the money, left behind all his things and a clear set of fingerprints. Was Sarah responsible? If so, the police should thank her!
