Return from Handler... What am I Missing Here?

Another rookie error, I suppose.  Why does the first case work and the second fail?

-- Case 1
handlerName()
if errNum of the result ≠ 0 then
display dialog "Error " & errNum of the result & ": " & errMsg of the result
else
display dialog "No Error"
end if
--> "Error -1: x"

-- Case 2
if errNum of handlerName() ≠ 0 then
display dialog "Error " & errNum of the result & ": " & errMsg of the result
return
end if
display dialog "No Error"
--> Runtime Error: "Can’t make errNum of "x" into type Unicode text."

on handlerName()
set yyy to "x"
return {errNum:-1, errMsg:yyy}
end handlerName
