“Long ago a farmer had two sons, ...”
Long ago a farmer had tow sons one was very good and obedient and the other lad (Jack) was very careless so when the Father was dying he left all his property to Tom the good boy. So Jack made up his mind to frighten Tom and pretend he was his father's Ghost. One night he rolled himself up in a white hut and went to meet Tom coming home from rambling and said to him "Give Jack his right and more than his right and immediately I'll go rest". Tom was very good and generous to Jack after that.
