    Story.
    long ago there lived a woman in Acers and a travelling woman came in to her one day and asked her what she had in the pot.She told her it was a bit of nice beef the were after killing and she told her that her fine fat yearling was drowned and that she had some down.
    The travelling woman
    walked up to the door and pulled a sop from the thatch and made a loob of it.then she took the lid off the pot and told her to look in and see what she had in it.She looked in and what did she but an old man and then she disappeared.
