    Share Share Post
    James Clancy lived in his own home long in the hill, one night he was thirsty and got up to get a drink of water he got is but he was going around for a half-a-hour and could not get the door of h is room so he had to call his sister at last. He was sure the "Good people" kept him there for some purpose of their own.
