'Then God have mercy on your soul' said the master-builder. The apprentice fell to the ground and was killed. There is, however, a variation of this story, which localizes it in Copenhagen at Our Lady's Church there, and that the apprentice cried out that he saw two axes. The result was the same." "Thank you very much, Herr Pastor," said Mrs. Hardy.
Seeing that he was pleased, the doctor took him to his office and showed him hundreds of arrow heads. Some of them were small and finely chipped. "These are bird arrows," the doctor said. Then he showed large arrows. "These are for killing buffalo and other big game." And there were stone axes and hammers. Lastly, the doctor showed him something that looked like a little, very old hatchet.
He resolved that he would keep his wireless outfit with him when he went back into the forest as a fire patrol. But the maps on the wall were not all that interested Charley.

most obedient, humble servant, Th: Jefferson. LETTER XVIII. TO GENERAL EDWARD STEVENS, August 4, 1780 Richmond, August 4, 1780. Sir, Your several favors of July the 16th, 21st, and 22nd, are now before me. Our smiths are engaged in making five hundred axes and some tomahawks for General Gates. About one hundred of these will go by the wagons now taking in their loads.
This intelligence was accompanied with a request, that another goat might be given him, together with two axes.
