Welsh Fairy tales
ELLEN'S LUCK.
Ellen
was a good girl, and beautiful to look upon. One Sunday she was walking
by an open gutter in a town in North Wales when she found a copper.
After that day Ellen walked every Sunday afternoon by the same drain,
and always found a copper. She was a careful girl, and used to hoard
her money.
One day her old mother found her pile of pennies, and wished to know where she got them.
Ellen told her, but though she walked by the gutter for many a
Sunday after, she never found another copper.
