  1. A Strange Story.
    One night a man was coming home from his work when he was stopped by a man and he said to him you are they I want so he took him by the hand and took him into a cave where there was a crowd of people and they all began to dance around him. They were just going to kill him when he thought of a plan. He turned his coat inside out and he got home safe and he enjoyed the night.
