    She has stolen all the gold and silver
    That I ever had."
    The answer the mill made was to
    fall on top of him and kill him.
    NB Mrs Joanie Brien's people - father and mother - were native Irish speakers. She herself spoke Irish and English. She had little or no English education. I am certain this old tale is a traditional one and not out of a story book. The words are almost exactly as she gave them.
