GHOST! -

The ghost of a murdered man was said to haunt the railway yard at Mount Magnet and the story of his murder is as follows:

A stranger arrived in town by train looking for French Maggie. She was living in a building at the end of the railway yard with two male ‘friends’.

A violent argument was heard coming from the house and the next morning Maggie and her companions quickly left town.

Some months later the stranger’s body was found at the bottom of an abandoned shaft of the New Chum Mine.
