Long ago giants were fighting in Ireland. I Will and I Cannot were two very brave giants and they were noted for their valour and their victories.
I Will was fighting against I Cannot and they fought inside a big wall. I Will tore down one side of a wall and he chose a white heavy stone out of the wall and with this stone he struck I Cannot on the head and killed him Then I Will was put into a big mansion and got a lot of detectives to mind him in the mansion and one day as the handmaid was giving I Will his dinner they put some poisoned herbs in it and after a while he died- Collector
