    the same way as Tom hat thare was the place of the dancing away he goes in he danced with the ladie & sang & done everything. So he lucked at his watch he said it was time to go home off he went. The girl went over to her father & said dad I don't like that lad atall. "Call him back" said the father. Out she goes & called him back. Back he comes & the old man took the hump from behind the door & put it on him. That finished the bloak anyway.
