When he was coming home he fell into a trench. That horse went down on his knees and caught his master by the coat and brought him as far as Clohessey's house.The people were in bed and the horse kicked the door with his foremast legs. The people got up and they brought the man into the house until the following day. He went home on horse back again as good as ever.
