    on the fire still it would not boil.
    A passer-by once broke off a branch of the tree growing near the well to drive his cows and when he had put them into a field he threw the stick inside the gap but next morning the stick was back in the very same place from which he had taken it.
    It is also said that there is a frog in the well and any person who goes to the well suffering from any disease it is said that he would be cured.
