    (continued from previous page)
    fine he forgot his umbrella. He was half way home when he thought of it. When he came back to the house he was amazed to find the people breaking down the frame of the door to get the umbrella out.
    He laughed heartily and walked in and put his hand on the spring and closed the umbrella. The people were astonished when they saw this and said, It is true the Priest have great power. Because they thought it was the power of the Priest that closed the umbrella.
