    (continued from previous page)
    There was a very rich man living in Oak Park and he sent two of his servants to get two pillars of mass stone. When the servants were coming back the bullocks lay down on the top of "Bullocks Hill" and would not rise so the two servants got out of the car to pull them along and all in vain. They put the stones by the side of the road and said they would come back the next morning. The next (time) morning when they came back (and) the stones were gone and they found them in the in the same as they had taken them from and they would not take them as they were frightened.
