“Long ago a man was going fishing every night.”
"Long ago a man was going fishing every night".Long ago a man was going fishing every night. And it was close season. And he was in jail most of his time. And his family was starving. One night he was going fishing and the neighbours were at him not to go. When he was going down the bank he heard a voice from the river to go home quick or he would be caught. And he said that he wouldn't be caught or he or he would not be afraid of God or man. And he started to fish. And he saw two men coming and when they were about a hundred yards from him they dissappered. And the voice came again. And he said that he wasn't afraid of God or man. At that, he was struck with something and fell dead. And after that his family lived happy. And for a long time after that any one did not go fishing in the close season.- Collector
