    (continued from previous page)
    out of it in summer it never goes dry. there is always water flowing into it. No matter how hot the day would be the water is always as cold as ice. Old people say if we drink lots of water out of that well we will never have a toothache. It is cleaned out about once a month. There never comes a scum on it at all.
