“One night a woman went out to milk when she heard a baby crying in the same fort...”
One night a woman went out to milk when she heard a baby crying in the same fort.
She listened and she heard the mother saying that when the cow would be milked she would spill the milk and that they would have plenty.
When the woman had the cow the cow kicked the bucket and spilled the milk and she had to go home without any.
