   Once upon a time a man was set astray. He went into a field and every-where he went he met fences. He got tired and went to sit down. A little woman appeared to him and said, '' You will not sit here, because I am going to light a fire.'' After a while he saw a light far away. He went towards it. The light was in a house. All that were in the house were dancing and had great fun. He heard a noise at the back of the house. He saw a little man hammering a shoe. He got afraid, and he ran back into the field again. Later he heard that the field in which he was, was haunted. Soon afterwards he died.
