“There was a woman there long ago.”
(continued from previous page)fight was on. When she saw Jack she said that was the man that saved her own life. Jack gave her the ring that she have to him after fighting the Giant. It just fitted his finger. It wouldn't fit any other man in the wedding but Jack. The king ordered his soldiers to tie the officer by the hands and feet and put him into prison. Jack got married there and them to the king's daughter. He had his little hare and pigeon for two pets ever after. And if Jack wasn't digging potatoes he was digging lumps of gold. They lived happy for the rest of their life.
