they helped the widows and orphans
At the beginning of a new planting season,the witches decided to nominate person's that would benefit from there blessings,they were given opportunity to choose whoever they wished, some nominated their relations,other nominated their brothers and husbands.because they were white witches, before they bestowed their blessings on any one they must be sure the person would assist those in need in the village, especially orphans and widows who had a special place in the minds of the witches.
The first witch was asked to. nominate.she nominated her husband.the fourth witch disagreed with her, whenever there was disagreement the witch who disagreed must state the reason.the reason for the fourth witch disagreement was that first witch husband,Andy would never assist anyone, first witch argued on behalf of her husband that they would assist other people as soon as they are blessed,well the witches reached an agreement that he should be given the blessings on trial.for the first year,first witch husband, Andy,harvested all sorts of vegetables and fruits more than any other person in the village and he bought more lands,he became the richest person in the village.
