    he came out he found his ass on one side of the gate and the cart on the other with the shafts though the gate and the ass yoked. The way this happened was Jhonny Cole or "Johnny the Trick" as he was called was passing by. He saw Pat's ass and thought of playing some of his tricks. He took the cart off the ass and drove him out in the field. Then he closed the gate and next pushing the shafts of the cart out through the gate he yoked the ass again under the cart. Pat came out and seeing the position his ass was in he cursed the red-headed woman, vowing when he would meet one in the future, he would return home.
