  1. (continued from previous page)
    He did nothing but throw himself into a thicket of brambles he was not long there when away down came the great noise. There were horses there they were knocking sparks out of the road, There were gentleman and ladies there. He knew some of them, They all went away and the man got out of his hiding and away home with him. Just when he reached home it was cock crow and his wife asked him did anything happene to him she said the cock was crowing all night He did not tell the story to her until a few days after.
