    people were hurt on that holm.
    They people long would make toys for themselves such as the gun. They would get a short branch of an elder berry bush and push the core out of (of) it. Then they would get a bit of the spring of a clock and put it into it. Then put in a little stone in near the spring. Pull back the spring and the stone will go whistling through the air.
