Let $R$
be a Noetherian local ring with the maximal ideal $\mathfrak{m}$
and $\dim R=1$
. In this paper, we shall prove that the module $\Ext^1_R (R/Q, R)$
does not vanish for every parameter ideal $Q$
in $R$
, if the embedding dimension $\mathrm{v}(R)$
of $R$
is at most $4$
and the ideal $\m^2$
kills the $0^{\underline{th}}$
local cohomology module $H_{\mathfrak{m}}^0(R)$
. The assertion is no longer true unless $\mathrm{v}(R) \leq 4$
. Counterexamples are given. We shall also discuss the relation between our counterexamples and a problem on modules of finite G-dimension.
