- One evening a girl was milking a cow in a fort and she heard a baby crying for milk, and she also heard the mother trying to make the child quiet and saying. The bull will soon give you lots of milk.
The girl continued milking and was puzzled to know what the woman could mean. Suddenly she heard a noise and a bull rushed in from another field and frightened the cow upsetting the gallon of milk. Then the girl understood what the woman meant and she believed in fairies ever after.- Collector
