    (continued from previous page)
    was making tea and a boy came to the door and told her that there was a person at the door. The woman was in such a hurry that she put the cup on the side of the table and it fell off the table and broke. When she went to the door there was no one there at all. When she came in to the house again she said to the boy "there was no one there at all" and he said to her "April Fool".
