- Long, years ago aman went out to take home his horses on Hallowe'en night.
On his way he met a man who was riding a horse. The man of course was a fairy, and lifted him up on his horse. They rode on and on, until they reached France. He was a long time in France, and the fairy scribbled an address to let his wife know that he was in France.
In the end he returned home, and along the fire, was his potatoes.- Informant
