  1. (continued from previous page)
    across a little hill that was above the house There was a bull in it and he was very cross the bull followed th children. They began to cry, the old woman heard them, and she ran to where they were. She brought the dog with her. She set the dog on the bull, and he caught him by the nose. So from that day till this the children never threw a stone at the old woman.
