  1. There are a lot of strange animals in this country. One night my brother was going in a journey. He was only gone a few miles when he met a dog. The dog was as big as a cow. He was of a black colour when my brother saw him. He went to hit him but he could not. When he went to cycle away the dog followed him and he got off the bicycle then he went away and he saw him no more.
    My brother was told after that a lot of people saw him.
