  2. One day a man came home from his work. He went out hunting, and he had a gun. He saw a hare running along by the hedge, and he fired a shot after it. He went over to look for the hare, and what was it, only a woman lying on the grass. When she saw him, she got up and ran away There was a big hole in her leg where the man had shot her.
