[00:13.12]Why does the vicar refuse to cut down the tree?
[00:19.67]The tiny village of Frinley is said to possess a 'cursed tree'.
[00:27.13]Because the tree was mentioned in a newspaper,
[00:30.39]the number of visitors to Frinley has now increased.
[00:34.63]The tree was planted near the church fifty years ago,
[00:39.31]but it is only in recent years that it has gained an evil reputation.
[00:45.04]It is said that if anyone touches the tree,
[00:47.88]he will have bad luck; if he picks a leaf, he will die.
[00:53.41]Many villagers believe that the tree has already claimed a number of victims.
[00:59.52]The vicar has been asked to have the tree cut down,
[01:02.50]but so far he has refused.
[01:05.31]He has pointed out that the tree is a useful source of income,
[01:09.32]as tourists have been coming from all parts of the country to see it.
[01:15.31]In spite of all that has been said,
[01:18.08]the tourists have been picking leaves and cutting their names on the tree-trunk.
[01:23.52]So far, not one of them has been struck down by sudden death!
