People were flockingto London from all parts of the country, to witness the festivities, and the boy longed to gowith them.One evening he said to his uncle,If I had sixpence I could make my fortune.Pooh! nonsense! exclaimed his uncle, a sixpence is a small thing. How then could youmake a fortune from it?That I cannot tell you, replied Gilligren, but if you will give me the sixpence I will go toLondon, and not return until I am a rich man.
