THE GOLD OF FAIRNILEE
By Andrew Lang
TO JEANIE LANG, LARRA
Dear Jeanie,
For you, far away on the other side of the world, I made this little tale of our own country. Your father and I have dug for treasure in the Camp of Rink, with our knives, when we were boys. We did not find it: the story will tell you why.
Are there Fairies as well as Bunyips in Australia? I hope so.
Yours always,
