  1. Once there was a man and his sister living together in a house. One night the man went out to feed his cattle. It was about twelve o'clock. The sister went out to help him. When she was going out she heard big noise at [?] cock of hay. Voices said to the sister. "Tell the boy to get out of there" As soon as the man heard that he went in and tumbled into bed at once.
