    seen. Ever since, a smith, who washes his hands in the water in which he has cooled his iorns finds him self refreshed and stronger.
    He has two big benches on which are his tools. The anvil is beside the fire.
    Jonnie Haw was in the Great war and he tells great stories and acts.
    I like to see a blacksmith at work.
