    One day Lady Massy was invited to a feast across the river. The river was very rough and the boatman warned her not to go but she went. When they were out in the river the oars were swept out of the boatmans hands and the boat was brought down with the stream and they were drowned. Some time after a man found her body and took all her gold too. Later her parents found her but all the gold had gone.
