    One night a man was out late and he heard a lot of horses coming galloping. One of the men told him to go up on a horse's back. He went up on a horse and he was never seen again. His brother was out late one night and he heard a number of horses coming towards him. He stood and he let the horses pass him. But one of then stood and told him that if he was out late that he would be brought and he galloped away again.
