"Yes, the Tailor’s Cliff!" shouted all the
boys. "It fell in the year 1755!"
"Fell!" said the old man, as if in astonishment
that any one but himself could know it.
"Everything will fall once, and the tailor
directly." The robbers had placed him upon
the cliff and demanded that if he would be
liberated from them, his ransom should be that
he should sew a suit of clothes up there; and
he tried it; but at the first stitch, as he drew
the thread out, he became giddy and fell down
into the gushing water, and thus the rock got
the name of ’The Tailor’s Cliff.’ One day
the robbers caught a young girl, and she
betrayed them, for she kindled a fire in the
cavern. The smoke was seen, the caverns
discovered, and the robbers imprisoned and
executed. That outside there is called ’The
Thieves’ Fall,’ and down there under the water
is another cave, the elv rushes in there and
returns boiling; one can see it well up here,
one hears it too, but it can be heard better
under the bergman’s loft."
