    The next night the man didn't go. Next day after the man not going for the gold the little man appeared again to the man and told him to go the next night and to bring the man with him. When the next night came he went but he brought the wrong man with him.
    When they were going to the rock it got pitch dark and very rough and they had to go home without the gold.
