- One time there was a man living in our country he had a cow that was a terrible thief, he was complaining of her to his neighbour and the neighbour said. "If I had her I would settle her so I would"
The man asked him how would he do it and he said "I would go down to the bottom and make a good straw rope of sprit and I would bring it home and tie her head to her horn with it and then she would have manners." - Transcription guide »You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
