  1. One time a man was ploughing in a field. When he was ploughing the third scrape, the horses stood. The man shouted at them to go on, but he couldn't get them to move. Then he looked and saw a big stone. He moved the stone away and when he looked down he saw half a hames of gold. He brought it home with him and got a lot of money for it.
