    Bailey died. He thought he would find the gold. In the same field was a lone bush, The neighbours told him that if he dug round the tree he might find it. So he did, but all in vain.
    He cut the tree and took it home to roof his byre. When he went out the next morning he found his cow standing up, dead.
