- One Sunday morning a man went out in the field to bring in his horse to go to Mass. He saw a weasel killing rabbits and every one he killed, the man took them from him That night when the man was eating his supper. There was a couple of people in the house. And one of them looked up and they saw the weasel on the roof of the house. That night he meant to kill the man. But the people gathered around him. The man ran out and got a pike, and they stuck him with it and killed him.
