    her eyes fixed on it. Suddenly it disappeared.
    As she was coming near a bend in the road she was instantly faced to the opposite side. She tried to turn back for home but completely failed. She walked on. As she came near a cottage she saw a man coming towards her. She stopped him and having told him her story he told her to turn her coat inside out. She did this and immediately she was able to turn back on her direction for home.
