wife. In order to protect the two wo-
men, Purcell fired at his father, killing

When sheep were first introduced
into Cornwall, England, a flock which
had strayed from the uplands on to
Gwithian sands were caught there by
the tide and ultimately carried into
st. Ives bay during the night. There
the floating flock was observed from
the st. Ives fishing boats, whose crews
never having seen sheep, took them for
some new kind of fish and did their
best to secure them both by hooks and
lines and by netting. Those they Sc
cured they brought home triumphantly
next morning as a catch to which even
pilchards were as nothing.
