“There was a boy working with a farmer on time.”
There was a boy working with a farmer one time. This day he was eating his dinner, he had a big plate of turnips and only a little piece of meat. When he had the piece of meat eaten he called for more meat. When he had it the woman said, "The bull will be roaring in you all night". "If he will " said the boy "it will not be for want of turnips he will be roaring"One night when Tom Scanlon was in bed, after the old Major dying, he heard a noise at Phillips green door. He lit the candle and got up and went down into the yard to see who it was . He thought it was the old Major. He picked up courage and went over to see what it was and what was it but an ass rubbing against the green door.(no title)
