    day after a great wind storm he saw the big tree was blown down and there was a big piece of ground taken up with it. He went down in the hole and found the crock of gold. He brought it home and left it down on the floor and a big black dog leaped out of it and started to bark. There was fire coming out of his mouth. Terry only lived a day to tell the story. It would be better for people not to look for the Hidden Treasure.
