“One time there was a man who was fattening pigs for the fair.”
(continued from previous page)go out and feed one of the young pigs he was going to sell the next fair day. While he was standing waiting for the pigs to finish. He took out his money, and began counting it, and a half crown fell into the pig's pan, which he ate. This troubled the man very much, and he waited to see if the pig would pass it, but he never did.
