On Hallow'een night long ago a man was comming home from his work, he had to pass trough a fort.
He saw two fairies in the corner of the fort at a lone bush. He went up to the little fairies and said "tell me where I will get the full of this can of gold" and they said "go over to the far side of this fort and you will get the full of that can of gold."
