Then every one is really sad that Ben is gone because they don't know where he is. Then Ben's family thinks he is dead so they have a funeral for him even though he really isn't dead. Then a little while later they get the idea that he is still alive so they go out looking for him, Then Ben's brother John found Ben with Dilly but Ben was acting more like a badger then human.
