- There is an old story often told in my district of two farmers who went into the fair to sell cattle. They made such a price of their cattle that they decided to give their servant boys a treat.
The farmers went into a shop where second hand clothes were sold. They bought two coats for them. When the farmers came home and saw how good the coats were they kept them. After a few weeks they got sick and died.
