- A man was coming from his work one night late and he had to go through a town. Before he came to the town a dog came out before him and began jumping up on him. He did not take any notice of the dog as he thought it was his own dog. The dog accompanied him until he reached about a quarter a mile from his house. Then the dog disappeared and he never saw him after that.
