    There was a witch one time and she changed herself into a hare and she used to stay in Henry Denise's byre.

    There was a witch one time and she changed herself into a hare and she used to stay in Henry Denise's byre. One morning, Henry was out foddering and he saw the hare in the byre and she ran out. So her went out the next morning, and she was there and she ran out. So he brought his gun the next morning, and he went into the byre, and he wounded the hare and she ran into the house and she was bleeding in they corner when Henry came in. It was the witch that changed herself into a hare.
