He thought someone droped it and a dog picked it up and buried it there so he picked it up and threw it into the ditch.Some days later the man who owned the field came along and asked what it was and where it came from.When the workman told him he said it was the person who was going to steal the crops buried it there.The man sprinkled the field with holy water and tried to burn the fish but could only about one third of the entire crop came up.
