Hey dear,
The story opens with the thoughts of a man named Henry Armstrong, who has been buried alive. He comes to terms with this fact fairly quickly. He is very ill and has become apathetic about whether he lives or dies. He falls asleep with no concern for his fate.
Meanwhile, above ground, a storm approaches as three men dig up the grave of Henry Armstrong. Two of the men are medical students and one of them is a cemetery employee named Jess. The narrator suggests that Jess has done this kind of thing before, and a horse and wagon waits outside the cemetery fence, presumably for the body of Armstrong.
The grave has only recently been filled in, so the men finish the job easily. When Jess unscrews the cover of the casket, Henry Armstrong sits up, and the two medical students run away terrified. Jess stays.
The students meet the next morning at the medical college and express their apprehension about what they saw. They find a familiar horse and wagon hitched behind the building near the dissecting room. When they enter the room, they find Jess, who demands to be paid. On a table lies the body of Henry Armstrong with a fresh head wound.
PERFECTLY DEFINITELY PURE CORRECT ANSWER.
