  1. (no title) (continued)

    Long ago the lived to little boys who had a very wicked step-mother.

    (continued from previous page)
    The hare ran and took the stick from her & struck it against the stone. When he had that done, he fell dead. Then the tiger took the stick & stuck it in the witches eye. When he had the witch killed the brother hit the stone & who came out but his brother & the hare. They went home to their fathers house & they lived happily after that.
