“There once lived an old woman near Ryehill who was very poor.”
There once lived an old woman near Ryehill who was very poor. One day a man came and asked her did she want any work to be done. She said that she wanted some timber to be cut and when the timber was cut he said he would come the next day with something for her and the next day the man went out into her field and he dug up some of the ground and he found a jar of gold and he gave it to the woman and she was never poor again.- Collector
