- I heard a true story about a man not far from our house. He got a new cottage built behind ours. He told a story which he said was a true one. He said he dreamt that he should go to a hill near him and under a small bush which he should get a small can with fivehundred pounds in it. He dreamt it three nights and the third night he dreamt that if he went he would loose one of his children.
