    village a tailor, named Bill.
    Without thinking of any danger Mick shouted out at the top of his voice " Our Bill was a tailor". As soon as he said this he knew he had done wrong as he knew it was not the tailor at all.
    "Excuse me" he said and started to go on his journey but in some strange way or other he had to follow the little man who waved his green hat at him. Suddenly he came to himself again and found himself about three miles from home. He started off and it was morning before he was home
