    I did not do anything to any-body said the man "O yes you did said the stranger. Do you remember when you were cutting the wheat" says the stranger "I do said the man I threw it up. Why did you through it up. Just for sport" says the man. Do you see how I am ruined now said the stranger. I did not know it was any harm says the man. Never throw a hook or knife like that up in the air. I will not summon you for this time says the stranger but let it never occur again. The farmer was very thankful to him.
