“A long time ago there dwelt a gentleman who had a big farm and a beautiful bull.”
A long time ago there dwelt a gentleman who had a big farm and a beautiful bull. They opened the gate leading to it and one of them went in whilst the other waited outside. The man who was waiting was immediately caught by a little red man. At last he succeeded in getting away from him and all the time whilst they were coming home with the bull a white dog was running around them. Not long after the man met with an accident with the bull and died later in the hospital. The bull didn't live long after.
