The story

Three Lancashire farm children discover Arthur Blakey, a bearded fugitive hiding in their barn, and mistake him for Jesus Christ. They come to this conclusion because of their Sunday School stories and Blakey's shocked exclamation of "Jesus Christ!" when Kathy Bostock, the eldest child, accidentally discovers him. In Sunday School the children quiz their teacher and become even more convinced in their belief.
