Week 14 Reading B: Russia: The Two Friends

Russian Folktales unit. Story source: Russian Fairy Tales: The Two Friends. by W. R. S. Ralston (1887).

This story was weird! Why would the friend want to keep his friend from his wedding day?  I love the time travel though.. What if the friend that was about to get married didn't go to the guy's grave, he just went to his old house that was about to be sold and found his friend in the basement playing video games like he did in life? He could then ask his friend to sit and play a while and a couple hundred years could pass that way. That would give a more modern twist to this story.
