Hudden and Daniel despised Dudden so one day they thew him into the sea. But somebody pulled him out and told him to mind a herd of cattle, while he was minding them he met Hudden and Danial they asked him where did he get the cows, he said he got them in the sea, They asked Hudden to bring them to the sea.
