“There was an old woman one time who lived around here.”
(continued from previous page)226
till Andy heard a strange rumbling and up sat a man in the coffin and began to speak.He said Andy "You are the bravest man that ever came into this house"."Many a man"he said,was brought in here in the same way and they all died.,when they saw me getting up to talk to them".There are three pots of gold "hid outside in the yard "says he ,and they'll be exposed to you when you go out in the morning.You must give two of the pots to to whom I wronged when I was alive and you can keep the other for yourself."
The four men then came again and took away the coffin and its occupant and Andy was left alone till morning.He then went out and found the pots of gold as had been told to him.After wandering a long way he reached a place he knew ,and from that he made his way home .he did as he had been told with the pots and he never saw a poor day after.
