At a place called V Šindelářouc koutě, mysterious lights appeared together with a fiery man. A murder over a girl had once been committed here. The girl suspected who the murderer was and reported it. All the men had to swear their innocence before the dead body. But while the murderer was swearing falsely, blood suddenly spurted from the corpse and identified the guilty man.
