Dryden, Virginia Ghost Tales He could not help himself for hating his business partner because he had a beautiful home, a beautiful wife and more money than he could ever spend. So when he found out his partner had terminal cancer it was difficut pretending to be sad over this turn of events. Soon afterwards his business partner died, and his family had a huge monument erected telling all he had accomplished in life. Within a year the jealous man had married his dead partners wife, had full use of all the money, and had moved into his beautiful home. But it was difficult knowing the dead man had such a beautiful monument erected in the memory of his life. He kept finding himself visiting his dead partner's grave and admiring his beautiful monument with envy. And one evening after having a few drinks too many he went to the cemetery with several cans of spray paint and a heavy duty chain to do as much harm as possible to the granite monument. In a drunken rage he took the spray paint out of his vehicle, wrapped the chain around the monument and the other end to his trailer       hitch. The next day the cemetery care taker was making his rounds of the cemetery and discovered the body of the jealous man hanging from his feet in a large tree by the chain. The body had been spray painted with orange and green paint with the heart removed. The police could never solve the case, but many people have claimed to hear laughter and   snickering coming from the large granite monument. Submitted by Loyce B.
