  1. (continued from previous page)
    dig down deeper and you will get another pot. The Leprecaun is always to be seen sitting on a mushroom. He is a small little person, he has brown hair, and he wears a red hat and a green coat. He also wears legons and is only to be seen at certain times.
    They are usually to be seen in woods in the night time. These little men live under ground. They always store their money some distance away from where they live.
