Synopsis
|
Brer Fox and Bear set a trap for Brer Rabbit. Sure enough, he falls into it and they plan to roast him. Brer Rabbit says that it's too bad, because that night he was going to show them where a big pot of gold lay. So they decide to make him show them. Brer Rabbit takes them to the old mill pond with the full moon shining above, the water glittering with gold. Brer Fox and Bear jump in after the "gold" and Brer Rabbit escapes.

There can't be too many of these around anymore after 51 years of being read, lost, and chewed up by the family dog.
