  1. (continued from previous page)
    all the blacksmiths had to do was to make lawes for the farmers to dig the land for the crops. The blacksmiths have a lot of work to do nowadays as there is a lot of horses and ploughs in the country nowadays. The blacksmiths also mend wheels of carts. The blacksmiths only mend steal and iron things. The blacksmiths change a lot of money for mending articles.
