    room he saw his brother lying on the bed and his clothes had all the signs of his night adventure. They were covered with mud and he was in a faint.
    When he revived he told his brother that he was taken away on a white horse by the fairies. When he reached the fort, the fairies let him go and he tried to get out of the field but could not.
