Deep in Brisbane Glen, near the charming town of Largs, lies a grave with a fascinating history. This is the final resting place of Reverend William Smith, a local minister who, in 1647, made a remarkable prophecy as he lay dying. According to his wishes, two holly trees were planted at the head and foot of his grave, and as long as they didn't touch, pestilence would never return to the parish. To this day, the grave remains, and locals claim that the trees have been carefully maintained to prevent them from meeting.

The story of Reverend Smith's prophecy has been passed down through the centuries, and his grave, affectionately known as the Prophet's Grave, Minister's Grave, or Smith's Grave, has become a local landmark. While there's no concrete evidence of paranormal activity, the site's unique history and picturesque setting make it a popular spot for those interested in the supernatural. Visitors have reported a sense of peace and tranquility in the area, which some attribute to Reverend Smith's enduring legacy.
