A gentleman promised a cow if the shoemaker sewed in the church - but the skin on his pincers made him rich another way.

In Vörå a gentleman promised a shoemaker a cow if he dared sew shoes in the church. The shoemaker sat down at the altar, and then the devils came in with a gentleman whom they flayed, throwing the skin at him.

Three times they had to bring sums before he released the skin, and by then he was already so rich he had no need of the cow.
