On the outskirts of town, there was a huge nut tree
by the cemetery fence. One day two boys filled
up a bucket of nuts and sat down by the tree,
out of sight, and began dividing the nuts."One
for you, one for me. One for you, one for me,"
said one boy. The bucket was so full, several
rolled out toward the fence.

Cycling down the road by the cemetery was a
third boy. As he passed, he thought he heard
voices from inside the cemetery. He slowed
down to investigate. Sure enough, he heard,
"One for you, one for me. One for you, one for
me." He knew what it was. "oh my," he
shuddered, "It's Satin and St peter dividing the
souls at the cemetery."

He cycled down the road as fast as he could and
found an old man with a cane, hobling along.
"Come here quick!" said the boy. "you won't
believe what I heard. Satin and St Peter are
down at the cemetery dividing the souls!" The
man said,"Shoooo, you brat, can't you see I'm
finding it hard to walk as it is."

But after several pleas, the man hobbled to the
cemetery. Standing by the fence they heard,
"One for you, one for me. One for you, one for
me..." The old man whispered ,"Boy, you've been
telling the truth. Lets see if we can see the
devil himself."


Shivering with fear, they peered through the fence,
yet they were still unable to see anything. The
old man and the boy gripped the wrought iron
bars of the fence tighter and tighter as they
tried to get a glimpse of Satin.

At last they heard, "One for you,one for me.
And one last one for you. That's all. Now let's go
get those nuts by the fence, and we'll be done."

They say the old man made it back to town five
minutes before the boy.
