Recording Information
Ballad Title The Kentish VVonder. / OR, / The Unmerciful Farmers Misfortune. / Containing an Account of an Old Miser, living in the Town of Maulden in the / County of Kent, that kept his Corn so long, in hopes it would be still Dearer, that at length the very Hogs would / not eat it. Likewise in his Field this Summer, a sheaf of Corn was heard to cry like a young Child while it was / bound, but when it was open, and spread, it ceased; but when bound up again it did the like, to the astonishment of / all Spectators.
