“One night a man living near our house was coming home from a neighbour's house about 10:30 P.M.”
33. One night a man living near our house was coming home from a neighbour's house about 10.30. p.m. As he was going along a narrow passage he saw a man coming towards him and he thought it was a man he knew. The man came by his side he thought, but when he put out his hand there was no man there. When he arrived home he was very frightened looking, he went to bed that night and told nobody. From that night on he was sure to be home early.
