    Thre was a man one time who lost his dog. He was out looking for him and he saw a dog in a field. He went over and took the dog. When he got home he thought that the dog was not the same as his dog and he went to leave the dog back again. When he was going over the field he met a wee fairy and it asked him where he got the dog and he said that he got it over in the field. The fairy said that it was their dog and that if he ever saw any-thing near their rock any more not to go near it.
