    awful storm arose, and himself and the two horses were lifted out of the field and landed in another one. "That was a fairly strong wind" said the other man, "but I was out one night and it started to blow a fearful gale, there were houses and trees and telegraph poles fallin' every place you'd look. I started off for home and I had to go down a long lane to the house where I was working. There was a lot of big trees around this house, and the crows were buildin' their nests. Well, when I was goin' down the lane I tripped over all the crows walkin' home to their nests. It was too wild for them to think of flying".
