Peyton falls from the bridge and since he was being hung, it would make sense that his neck broke and he died. However, it says he was awakened. That doesn't make sense because if someone falls from a bridge with a noose around their neck, they would die - not be awakened. But it is interesting how it says it seems like he was awakened years later. It also says he felt sharp pain around his neck, suffocation and many other shooting pains through his body so again the reader assumes Peyton has died. The reading then says his head felt congested and full - but not full of thoughts. He had lost ability to think and only had ability to feel. The noose is said to be strangling him which would kill him. But it still seems as if he is alive. It then says he would die of hanging at the bottom of a river. That is contradicting and an oxymoron - to drown at the bottom of a river or hang from a bridge. It then talks about a light he sees. At first it shoots right near him and then later it says it seems so distant. Next the reading says he sinking towards the bottom, but then it goes on to say he was rising toward the surface. This passage is confusing and ambigious because it seems as if Peyton is dead because he was hanged but then it also seems like he is still alive.
