  2. Story about a Robin

    Share Share Post
    In Smart's Castle quarry two men wre working. During the dinner hour they caught a robin. One of the men pulled out the legs of the robin and the other put out its eyes. They were just ready to fire off a charge of powder after dinner. They fired the charge. Something went wrong and it exploded before the two men could get away. The man who pulled out the legs of the robin had his two legs blown away and the man who had put out the two eyes of the robin had the two eyes blown out of his head.
