- Many years ago, as some men were cutting corn, they found a weasel's nest. They brought the nest to a corner of the field.
When the weasel came back she could not find the nest and she thought the men had killed the young ones.
The men had a can of water in the field, which they drank when thirsty. The weasel spat into the can of water to poison it. When the weasel found the nest she went back to the can and threw out the water for fear the men would drink it.- Collector
