- There was once a croud of boys card playing. One of them was cheating and tricking. They waited very late. When the boy who was tricking was goning home he met a big black pig on the road. The pig went across the road before him and the boy stopped still. After a while the pig went to the side of the road and the boy went home. He fainted just goning in the door. The old people that if you ever see a bad thing you are sure to faint on the door step. People also say it is good to met a white pig but it is very bad to met a black pig
