- One night there was a man out very late. He saw a man coming towards him with a brown cloak. The man asked him where was he going and the other man said he was going home. The other man gave him a warning not to be out so late any other night. The man was not out so late any other night. But after a while he was out late again and he saw the same person again and the person said that he gave him a warning before but that he would not give him one now. So the man went home and he got very sick, and he was sick for some time. He did not go out late any other night.
