   Once upon a time there was a blacksmith by name Jackie the Lantern and he had a servant called Billy the Crow. One day the devil went into the forge and he saw a gold shoe hanging up on the wall which he said he would try to get. He asked Jackie what did he want for the shoe and Jackie said "A purse of sixpences". "Alright" said the devil and he gave him the purse. That day Jackie went to Billy. "We will do less work while we have the money". One day they went to a public house and they had a few drinks. When Jackie went to pay for the drinks all the sixpences were stuck together and he could not move one of them. So that was what he got for his golden shoe. No person went into the forge often for anything and so they were broke out of everything.

   One night a crowd of men were assembled together in a certain neighbour's house card-playing. They were playing away peacefully for some time until at last an argument arose between two men as both of them accused each other of cheating.
