Anthony was a poor Irish man with a large family. And one morning, waking up very early from cold and hunger, he decided to go shooting in the wood near his cottage. The wood belonged to a rich gentleman and Anthony had no right to go there. But in it there were some rabbits and flocks of birds that were good to eat, and Anthony determined to take the risk.
