“Once upon a time there was a man who dreamt that there was gold hidden under the western side of the cows cabin.”
Once upon a time there was a man who dreamt that there was gold hidden under the western side of the cows cabin. He got up early on the third morning and started digging. He was digging until evening and at last he came to a great flag which covered the gold and he was not able to lift the flag. Then he ran and called his eldest son to lift the flag but when they had the flag up the cabin fell on them and killed them.
