“There is a hill in our land close to the house.”
There is a hill in our land close to the house. One day about fifty years ago when my grandfather was digging near the hill he found human bones in the ground. There was no flesh on the bones, and he put them in the clay again. It is a battle that was fought along that hill and that explains why the bones were found there.
