"Is it foggy outside? asked Mary, as Justin looked out the window.

"Nothing. Do you think Uncle Thomas was just trying to scare us with that story?"

Mary shook her head. "Remember what Uncle Thomas said? The Foggy Figure lives in the lake. We' re on the dock. Maybe that' s why we can' t see him."
