  1. (continued from previous page)
    asked the old woman for some flour. The old woman said she had no flour in the house. The girl told her there was some in the room. She told the old woman if she would give her some flour that she would tell her something of importance. Then the old woman gave her some flour. The girl told her to take the cradle out of the room door as it was in the fairies pass. The old woman thought it was a fairy girl because she never saw her afterwards.
