    “About forty years ago there was a flood in the Summer time.”

    Share Share Post
    About forty years ago there was a great flood in the Summer time. It carried cocks of hay out of places into other people's land. The people never saw such floods in the Summer time before. They had to take off their boots and go into the floods and bring out the hay. When they hay dried it was black.
