- (continued from previous page)go to the fair with a cow. When he went down past the stone wall the wee man was still leaned over it.
He asked him to accompany him to a dance. He said he would. The wee man brought him to a palace.
When he went in he was asked to take food but he refused. Then he was asked to dance. He said he could not. Then they asked him to sing. He said he could not.
They weren’t pleased with him. They ran away and stuck on the other hump that they took off the other man. When he went home from the fair the people did not know him till he told them what happened.- Collector
