  1. Many people used to be put astray even in the day light. When that would happen them they could not find out the way, or know where they would be. They would think it so strange that thing could not get out of it.
    Many people that it would happen to used to be shouting for hours before any body would hear them. Others used to say that the cure out of it was to turn their coat or their cap on them, and that they would see the place and know the way home at once.
    At present there is not as much talk about them as there was long ago.
