  2. This story was told to me by Patrick Carroll Moylett. One night Jimmie Plunket was going put for the pony. And he could not find her. But as he was looking for her he taught that he heard her feeding. And he called her. And a big white animal came up to him and Jimmie caught him and taught that it was the pony. And the animal broke away and went down and into the lake. And he went into the house to tell them. And Tom came out and began to look for the pony and they got her feeding beside the lake. And Jimmie never went out late for a long time after.
