    a horse to sell, and the men wanted to have a nice time at the threshing, and to earn their money soft, so they told the man that a buyer was coming to Cawleys cross-roads that day. The man prepared at nine o'clock in the morning to go to the cross-roads which was four miles away. When he came to the cross-roads there was no one at them. When he came home he was as vexed as he would not speak to them.
