- Once upon a time there was a man and he had a cow. When his wife would go to milk she would have no milk. One evening when she went to milk she saw a black hare sucking the cow. She went home and told her husband. He told another man about it. The man told him to get two black greyhounds. When he went down the hare was in the field. He let go the dogs. The hare ran for a big hill. When she was at the hill the dogs caught her. The cow had her milk after that.
