The Black Fawn

MP3 Audio CD. Bud Sloan who has no parents had been given away of the children?s home to become a farm boy from the moment he becomes mature enough to work. The farmstead where he was to labor was owned by an elderly crofter and his wife who had reared a big family and were presently living without their children.

Then, after finishing his duties, Bud walked into the forest in the vicinity and went agog when he saw a baby jet black fawn without his mother and seemingly baffled in his new environments. Bud pondered that day that this little fawn was also like himself, no parents, and would leap to him in life. Although, several hindrances would make the two divided, and the black fawn would sooner or later become a prey of the resident huntsmen.
