  1. A black man came into a house one summer's evening and the sun shining. He walked up and down the floor with his hands behind his back and he got a cup off the dresser and got a cup of water and he dried his hands in the towel and went out again.
    There was only one man in the house the owner, he was looking at him walking up and down the house and he knew the man had died a long time before.
