They aint much happened sence the last riting. After passing the bread and wine as Deakin uv the Church at Holy Thursday Communion I come out and stood in the dark a few minnits. The hill winds talked through the tall bare elms and half bare fields were black and white in the moonlight. Woodsmoke come from the chimneys of the old white village houses and the river, just thawing, talked to itself. If Alec Laing had ben there he would of whittled out a lovely piece uv poetry about the cycle uv the seasons and the never ending flow uv life and such things. Not being no poet I went up town and hove a drunk into jail for ninety days, they being short handed at the Caounty Farm and needing help for spring planting.
