    was about to turn back he saw ahead of him the figure of a man lying prostrate on the ground. He called his father down to see and immediately he touched the body with his shovel it fell to ashes. The man said that this dead man was dressed in a frieze overcoat and black shoes and stockings but they were rotten with the damp of the cave.
    People declared that it was some outlaw that went in there to hide himself while others agreed that it might have been some hunted priest that was ran in there and perished for want of food in the penal days.
