    a native of the same district tied a sheep to a holly tree on the same farm and it ate part of the back of the tree. Each night for three nights he heard a voice calling which bade him take away the sheep from the tree, but he did not heed the call and on the fourth morning when he awoke he found his hair had fallen off and was lying on the pillow and from that day to this - for he is still alive - only a few spots of white hair are growing on his head.
