An elderly couple decided to be married at Wheatley. They were walking, and when between Greystiles and the Clough, Jam said, "How much brass hes ta i' all t' world?" She said, "I've just 4s. 8d." "Well," he said, " I've just short o' two pounds, an' I move we put it together an' start equal. "She said I'll gi' thee mine now." She handed to him two 2s. pieces, a sixpence, and 2d. Thus they started level and lived happily ever after.
