Samuel had no sooner donned the wig than funny thing happened. The little pigtail worked itself around so that the tip of it tickled the wearer in the ear. Samuel could have sworn he heard little voice saying:
 Do take one of those nice, juicy apples from the tree over yonder."
 Samuel started, for, mind you, he had never in his life taken anything that did not belong to him. No Samuel was thirsty, and the fruit looked so tempt ing that Before he knew it he had a fine apple in his hand.
 This was but the beginning of Sam uers downfall. Once started, he forsook all the paths of virtue. Whenever that little pigtail bored it's way into his ear and the voice whispered Samuel obeyed, whether he would or not. Thus, valua- bles disappeared from his master 8 and at the same time a neighbor dis covered that a fine hen had been lost. People began to wonder at the expensive clothes Samuel now possessed in place of his former shabby raiment.
 But at last he came to grief. Samuel turned highWayman. was captured and condemned to be put to death.
 Samuel bequeathed the brown wig to his Jailer. The jatter decided to burn it. No sooner did the flame touch it, how ever, than the wig flew sizzling out the door and disappeared in the sky.
 And in the little town the legend of the evil spirit in the wig which brought about the downfall of Samuel Clapstone is stlll told from father to son.
