    St Martin was a gardener and he had a son and daughter. One day he was out in his garden saving his seeds. When he was out the servant girl had a big fire down for the dinner. After some time a stranger came in and asked for her master.
    The girl went in to the garden to call St Martin. He told her he would be in when he would be ready. The girl went in and told the stranger that he would be in in a few minutes. When St. Martin was coming in the stranger left the house.
