    he asked the man what he wanted and he answered that he came to earth every All Souls Night since he died and that to-night was his last before he would go up to heaven and that it was then that he disappeared, before the younger brother could ask any further questions. It is said that he wanted to see his sons for the last time on this earth before he would pass to eternal happiness. This is an old happening that took place on All Souls Night.
