- (continued from previous page)The day of the funeral Patrick recovered from his sleep.
A fairy that he knew told him a way by which to get out of the fort.
Then he set out across the fields for home. When he was gone about half a mile he met the people coming home from the funeral.
When they saw him they thought he had risen from the grave and they ran as fast as they could across the fields. When his mother saw him she fainted. When she recovered he told her his story and she told it to the neighbours.
