I 'm not so frightened of her as I once was , but I do n't think I would like to be caught by her . Sara Ray is dreadfully scared of her .

There may be some somewhere in the world , but it 's not likely there are any here right in Prince Edward Island . They used to be very plenty long ago . I know some splendid witch stories I 'll tell you some day . They 'll just make your blood freeze in your veins . '' We had n't a doubt of it .
