  1. A Story

    Share Share Post
    There is a hawthorn bush in a neighbour's field . A man dreamt three nights in succession that if he went there and brought three men with him an to dig at the root of the bush he would find a pot of gold .He went there one night , but he only brought two men with him , because one of the men was not friendly with him. He began digging and when he was doing so instead of a pot of gold, a great number of frogs jumped out, and nearly ate them.
