    to a rock which was not very far into the ground. They tried to raise the rock but failed. The man said they should go home for an iron bar to raise it and his son said not to go away for if they did the gold would be taken. The boy raised the rock after a long time and he found the firkin of gold. It was covered with glossy paper. They carried it home and were very happy ever after. They agreed with rest of the family and they too, were very happy.
