Robin Hood and Little John
[Child 125]

This is all Mr. Crosby could recall, although he must previously have known more of the story because lie told me it was part of the ballad of "Robin Hood and Little John. " see Child, 125, verse 7.

Robin Hood and Little John- recalled by  Vernon G. Crosby of Gardner's Mills, Nova Scotia.  

They happened to meet on a long narrow bridge
And neither of them would give way.
