  1. Strange Stories.
    One time there was a woman and she met another with a can of milk and she was spilling the milk and the other woman said it would not be spilled if there was not a mouth for it, She meant the fairies would drink it, and she said she was coming home through a field one night and she heard a lovely music, and she said it was the fairies that were playing the music in the Stone Bush.
