He stole a pig from old Sir John Keane the landlord of the district. Sir John was a clever man and he soon thought of a way to find the robber. He sent for a regiment of soldiers and ordered each of his tenants to keep a soldier and give him a meal of bacon and cabbage.Each of the soldiers were told beforehand to cut some of the bacon and put it in his knapsack and whoever had the fattest bacon would get a prize. Sir John knew his pig to be the fattest in the district and he knew that the tenant whose bacon was fattest would be the robber.
The boy was one of the tenants and he had to keep a soldier. The boy saw the soldier slipping a chunk of bacon into his knapsack but said nothing.
