  1. One day there were three robbers called Jack, Pat and John. They were at the Newry fair. Jack stole a horse Pat stole a cow, and John stole a cart. When they were going home they met a policeman who asked Jack where did he get the horse. He said he had it since it was a foal. He asked Pat where did he get the cow. He said he had it since it was a calf. He also asked John where did he get the cart. He said he had it since it was a wheelbarrow.
