    going home home" said Tom. "Indeed
    I will" said the leipreacaun. Then
    he took him into a room and
    it was full of silver. "I will give
    you a bag of that when you
    are going home" "alright" said Tom.
    Tom sat down by the fire and
    he was getting very uneasy. "I
    think I must go home now," said
    Tom. "Bring out the bottle woman"
    said the leipreacaun. Tom drank
    enough whiskey and he fell
    asleep. When he awoke in the
    morning he was sitting on the
    top of brag hill and he had
    neither gold nor silver.
