  1. (continued from previous page)
    heart sank. It was no wonder for all his good cattle and horses had died also and he didn't know what was the cause of it. At last he came to the conclusion that the money must be the cause of his downfall and he did not keep it a secret any longer and everyone he met he told it to them.
    One day it came to the landlords ears, and he went at once to Paddy's house for the money. He said to Paddy "Why didn't you tell me the money at once it is none of yours". He gave him the money and after that he had the best of luck.
