    out jumped the big men and started beating the landlord and his guests. Glasses and plates were broken till at last he said "Stop these men, Michael, or I'll have you hanged." "Not until I get my own bottle back" he cried. The landlord gave it to him and the two big men jumped into their own bottle. Michael grew richer than ever and when he died he left the biggest farm in the country. At last the bottle was broken and was no use to anyone.
