    (continued from previous page)
    mans pocket they placed the creels inside the house. Next they took the jennet from under the car and put him in the house also. Then they took the wheels of the car and brought them in and then they brought in the car. In a few minutes they had the jennet under the car in the kitchen.
    Then the two men carried in the man and put him in the car. They locked the door, put the key in the mans pocket and got out through the window. The next morning when the man awoke he was surprised to see where he was. He looked around to see how the jennet and car got into the kitchen but he could not find any place. But from that night he never took a sup of drink till his death.
