Once there was an old man who had a little gold, but he did have a big possum and a bag of sweet potatoes. He took the possum and the potatoes home and put them on the table. Then he got a few pieces of wood and some paper and made a fire. There was so much food he had to find two pans for it all. He put a large pan with the possum inside it on the fire and dropped the potatoes into the other pan.
