Nobody seemed to believe the two boys’ story about the shoemaker. The boys were adamant about what they had seen. A neighbor who had heard about the boys’ encounter with the shoemaker brought an old photo to the house and showed it to them. They immediately recognized the man in the photo as the shoemaker. The neighbor told the two boys and their grandmother that the man in the photo had been dead for over thirty years. The boys are grown men now and after all these years, they still believe that what they saw in that old shed was real.
