   when the sea went out the ship could be reached by a ladder. One day when the tide went out the people of the place stole a small quantity of it from the coast guard. There was a small boy and he could not get any some of it so he went home and told his uncle. This man was a very strong man, off to the strand he went and he put the coast guard home. He gave out the meat to the people, when the tide was coming in he jumped from the boat and broke his leg. All the meat was taken from him so he went home without any.
