    Not far from here there are two forts. They are very near each other. One night a man dreamed that there was money in side in the fort. He dreamed of it again, and the next night again. He went digging with a spade and dug about three feet. Then he wanted a pike and he went home for the pike and when he came back with the pike he could not see where he was digging.
