    thirty yards of the end of the ditch a sow came out of the ditch, and the man went home. He had to stay in bed for some time after. The remainder of the ditch is there still and was never thrown since.

    There is a crock of gold buried in Rossard. It is in a three-corner field near our house. It is under a big stone in one corner of the field. It was dug for twice but each time it was dug for the big stone fell in when they were just at it.
