  1. (continued from previous page)
    went to hunt on the mountain and as this man was walking along the mountain away from the others, he walked uo to the cave.
    It was a small opening in the rock and down from it were narrow steps. He marked the place and some time afterwards brought an old man who had often spent hours looking for the cave. But strange to relate when they reached the spot no trace of the cave could be found nor ever afterwards
