   one of the trees and all his children fell sick and he brought back the same tree again and sowed it. Then they got all right. One day there was a man cutting a tree in a fort when something stopped his hand and he found out afterwards he was doing wrong.

   There is a fort near my own house. There is another about a quarter of a mile away. In one of them there is a hollow in the middle of it and in the other there is a clump of bushes. Near the other one there is a cahar where the priest's used say mass long ago and there is a heap of stones sorrounding it. Around the other fort there is a mound of earth. Around the second fort there are stones. One time there was a light seen in the stones. No one cuts sticks in the forts. A long time ago there was a man cutting sticks and when he was cutting a big stump a voice shouted out and said not to cut any sticks and the hatchet was flung out of his hands.
