Summary

A retribution for an old man's greed at the time of the potato blight.

During the time of the potato blight, one old man had a healthy crop. He sold barrels for £1 each and few people could afford such a price. Everyone who bought one got a good crop the following year, while the old man's crops rotted. This was seen as a retribution for his greed.
