    see the intended husband's farm and it pleased him very much. It was covered with stock of all kinds, houses and cattle etc. When the marriage was over the bride came back after her honey moon. There was only a goat in the fields. She asked her husband where were all the cattle they must have broken out the fences. Well he said. "I suppose they broke out again the way they came in as they were not my own but I will but them out of your money".
