Summary
One fine autumn evening, a girl from North Uist met a fairy-woman. She was taken into a knoll and given the task of kneading dough. She was told that she would gain her freedom once the flour had been used up. Unfortunately, the flour chest always remained full. Feeling sorry for her, one of the old women helped her escape.
