His name was Fleming，and he was a poor Scottish farmer．One day，while trying to make a living for his family，he heard a cry for help coming from a nearby bog （沼澤地）．He dropped his tools and ran to the bog．There，he saw a boy crying and trying to free himself．Farmer Fleming saved the boy from what could have been a slow death．

"No，I can't accept payment for what I did，"the farmer replied，refusing the offer．At that moment，the farmer's own son came to the door．"Is that your son？"the nobleman asked．"Yes，"the farmer replied proudly．
"I'll make you a deal．Let me provide him with the level of education my own son will enjoy．If the boy is anything like his father，he'll grow to be a man we both will be proud of，"the nobleman said．
