    This man was mending boots as was the occuptation of his kind. These people who saw him went over to him inquirying as to where the money was hidden, he said he would tell them if they would allow him to mend their boots. This was permitted and he showed them a certain spot on which he said if they dig down they would get the treasure. The eager people dug and they must have found the money for they were known to have been rich afterwards
