The Ghost of Ruth, A Little Girl

Years ago I along with my brother were commissioned to clean a house for it was being sold.
There was a ghost in the house by the name of Ruth.
She was playing with her dollies and other toys.
I had heard her from the upstairs bedroom.
Had told my brother, Ervin, and he didn't hear anything.
Finishing the cleaning; we were on the way home.
When I looked up to the window upstairs I saw Ruth waving.
She was dressed in a yellow dress with pink ribbons.
Was no more than about five years of age from the description I was able to see.
Was an experience I will never forget for Ruth was looking down directly at me and waved.
I told Ervin to look up there but he saw nothing.
I will always remember the time I saw Ruth and how sometime later I found the owner of the place is also a Ruth---Mrs. Ruth Bailey of Morehead City, NC.
