Summary/Description: A man reportedly encountered several little figures, playing and leaping over some stones in a field, whom, a few yards distant, he imagined were school boys, and intended, when he came near enough, to reprimand, for being absent from school, within maybe 20 ft, they all immediately disappeared. He never took his eyes off of them.
