  1. Story (continued)

    Not far from here, there was an old thatched house.

    (continued from previous page)
    he looked as large as a big dog. Larry caught the tongs, and using all his strength he struck the cat a blow on the skull and when the cat got up again, Larry gave him a couple of good blows and killed him.
    He dug a hole about ten fet deep and threw the cat down, and piled a heap of stones on him and covered the place up. he was so much afraid of the cat rising up again.
