“One night a man was coming home from...”
One night a man was coming home from rambling. He had to pass through a thick wood. When he was passing through the wood a bird flow out of the ditch and tried to pick his eyes out. He kept it back with a stick. He went home and went to bed. The next morning he was found dead in the bed. No one could tell what killed him.
