Tale 75 — The woman who appeared at the match factory
At the match factory shed that stood at the Chojayashiki in Hanaremori, a woman appeared in the doorway at night and laughed when she saw people, so the factory was moved to Yamaguchi. After that, at a mountain hut where men cut railroad ties, a laborer was carried off by a woman when evening came, and when he returned he was dazed and could not remember anything for two or three days.
