  1. One morning two boys were going out out fishing about six oclock and they met a woman with red hair. She said to them "Are you not afraid of meeting me so early in the morning" and one of them said to her "Are you not afraid of meeting us" and she said to them "Do not be making game of me but go home or something shall happen unto you". But they continued their journey and they were for three day beating about in a violent storm.
