Accompanying the Ghost to his grave & Delivering the Letter

The Ghost now wants to head to his grave, so exit the house and play the new song you learnt earlier to fast travel over to Manbo’s Pond, make your way down to the Cemetery and exit out of the west side, hop over the holes past the Witch’s Hut and remove the stone blocking your way down the stairs.
