    The authors show: \textbf{Theorem A} \textit{There is a presentation of the quaternion group \(Q_{28}\) \[ P'=\langle x,y\mid y^2=x^7, y^{-1}xyx^2=x^3y^{-1}x^2y\rangle \] which has nonstandard second homotopy group. That is if \(X_{P'}\) is the Cayley complex associated to \(P'\) and \(X_P\) is the Cayley complex to the standard presentation \[ P=\langle x,y\mid y^2=x^7, xyx=y\rangle \] then \(\pi_2(X_P)\not\cong \pi_2(X_{P'})\) as modules over \(\mathbb Z[Q_{28}]\).}
