While I was standing there Rob Marr started Kitty and Em Frewen off on his sled . His sled had a wooden tongue in it and it slanted back over the girls ' heads . I was right in the way and they yelled to me to get out , but just as I heard them it struck me . The sled took me between the legs and I was histed back over the tongue and dropped in a heap behind before I knew what had happened to me . I thought a tornado had struck me . The girls could n't stop though they thought I was killed , but Rob came tearing down and helped me up . He was awful scared but I was n't killed nor my back was n't broken but my nose bled something awful and kept on bleeding for three days . Not all the time but by spells . DAN KING .
