  1. An old man called Oins (Owens) who lives in Cornasoo has a field with a lone bush in it. He had two men ploughing for him. One branch of the lone bush was sticking out in the way of the ploughing & one of the men got a saw & said he would cut it off. Owens told him not be he showed he'd do it anyway. He did do it but they weren't three times round the field when one of the horses took sick & they had to loose.
