    a year at home, he got married to an old girl what had a great big farm and a lovely house. They lived together; but never had any family. The man was always very fond of riding a big horse:- Thats the way he would go around the whole farm on the horse. He used also go around to the fairs, on the horse, and would never walk a step.
