“A long time a man was going to a fair in Charleville and when he was crossing Maine he saw a woman tossing money up in the air.”
A long time a man was going to a fair in Charleville and when he was crossing Maine he saw a woman tossing money up in the air. The poor mans heart was filled with joy so he came off of the car for to get the money. When he came off the car she was still tossing the money. He went up to her but she told him that the wicked dog that was behind him would eat him. So he looked behind him and there was no dog there but while he was looking back at the dog the woman disappeared.
