Story
“I was in Cootehill one day and I saw a whole lot of donkeys for sale.”
I was in Cootehill one day and I saw a whole lot of donkeys for sale. There was a man came to the man that was selling the donkeys and said,
'I'll buy one of these donkeys if it is young and smart'
The seller pointed to one, told him this donkey would suit him, the buyer however was very hard to convince so the man that was selling the donkey hit it with a whip.The donkey ran away at such a rate that no one could catch him. It was at last caught in a shop. Now said the seller, seeing is believing and the bargain was closed.Nellie McKeown
