Kaminsky lessons in laughter. A funny story for children about school. How Petya taught letters

L. Kaminsky
Brushwood cart
The bell rang for recess. Vitya Bryukvin, nicknamed "This is", jumped out of the classroom and rushed up the stairs, jumping over three steps at once. At the entrance to the buffet, he almost knocked down a thin man with a narrow long beard. Vitya glanced at him briefly and froze:

Oh sorry! Can not be! Is it really you, this is the very same writer? .. Well, this one, as they say, is a classic?

Do you, young man, know me? the stranger asked discontentedly.

But how! - Vitya was delighted. - You are still in the portrait - just like alive! Well, the portrait that hangs at the blackboard. Between this, like him, Gogol, and this, well, fabulist like him, Krylov! Yes, we are now passing you through: "Grandfather Mazai" and these, like them, "hares"! Then "Little man", this is "with a fingernail"! I just learned your poetry yesterday! Want to read it?

And, without waiting for an answer, Vitya Bryukvin began to quickly recite:

Once, in the cold, this is the winter time, I left the forest, well, that means I went out. There was, as they say, a severe frost. I look, it rises, this is the very, uphill, the horse, carrying, this is the very ... In a word, as they say, a cartload of brushwood! ..

Excuse me to stop right now! - interrupted Vitya the classic. - What have you done with my poems ?! Not a cart of brushwood, but a whole cart of verbal rubbish! Ugliness! The name of? What's the last name?

Trousers-vin ... Vic-to-ktor ... - Vitya began to stutter.

An excerpt from the poem "Peasant Children"! - Vitya began. - Poet Nekrasov. N.A., - he added and imperceptibly squinted at the portrait. The classic looked away. - Once, in a cold winter season, I came out of the forest, there was a severe frost. I look, slowly rises up the hill ...

And then the whole class was surprised to hear how Vitya Bryukvin, nicknamed "This is the very thing," read the entire passage without hesitation. Without any extraneous words. He never said either "this" or "like him". And he never even said "well"! No, one "well" he still said:

“Well, she’s dead!” The baby shouted in a bass voice, pulled at the bridle and walked faster.

But this "well" does not count, because Nikolai Alekseevich Nekrasov himself had it. ..............................................................................
Copyright: funny stories about school

Writer and artist Leonid Davidovich Kaminsky (1931-2005) always talked about himself with genuine humor ...

He "briefly" enumerates who he was in life: a preschooler, a schoolboy, a student of a civil engineering institute, a foreman, a senior foreman, an engineer, a chief engineer, an architect, a student of a printing institute, an advertising artist, an editor, a journalist, a cartoonist, a poster artist and even an artist.

Leonid Davidovich drew "popular prints" when he worked in the Leningrad satirical collective "Battle Pencil", he loved to invent crosswords, funny pictures, stories, poems. At first, the heroes of his works were different uncles, for example, Uncle Vasya Denisyuk or Uncle Gog, who confused everything. Then came the grandmother and the hippopotamus Borya, Siamese cats, gramophones and talking parrots, as well as students of ordinary schools: Vitya Bryukvin, Anton Petukhov, Yura Serezhkin and Yura Shurupov.

This Bryukvin managed to copy a home essay on the theme "How I had a rest in the summer" from Daniel Defoe himself. Anton Petukhov was dreaming so much that he forgot how many letters "ts" need to be written in the word "dreaming". Yura Serezhkin did not learn the case, but he was not taken aback and offered to give him an A for resourcefulness. And Yura Shurupov rested so well in the village that he was able to solve 34 problems from the textbook, and this is 2/5 of all problems in order to retake the two in mathematics.

Kaminsky recalled how at the Experiment Theater he played a teacher in the children's play The Lesson of Laughter, and the roles of the students were played by two artists and the guys sitting in the hall. Unlike the real school, in this lesson, the students really wanted to go to the blackboard. One viewer wrote in the guest book: “I was with my dad at this performance. We fell laughing several times. And I want to come again to fall! "

Kaminsky painted his first book in the publishing house "Children's Literature" together with the artist Mikhail Belomlinsky. It consisted of only pictures and was called "Funny Call". Then Lev Davidovich illustrated humorous books by Volt Suslov "Compliant Lozhkin" and Lyudmila Barbas "Who needs an A?" And once he wanted to make a book himself - all from beginning to end - and write and draw. The publishing house met halfway, and the book "The Lesson of Laughter" was published in 1986.

Leonid Kaminsky collaborated with various children's magazines: in Iskorka he drew covers and illustrations for stories, did interviews with interesting people, for example, with artists Yevgeny Lebedev and Mikhail Boyarsky, in Kostra he ran the Funny Call humor department and received a huge number of letters. Most of the letters came to the competition "And everyone laughed!" This is how a hobby appeared - collecting funny phrases that are in school notebooks on literature and the Russian language.

Here are some examples from the writer's collection:

"Dubrovsky worked for Troyekurov as a Frenchman."

"Pechorin fired, and Grushnitsky scattered like smoke."

"Two horses drove into the yard - they were the sons of Taras Bulba."

“Khlestakov stayed at a hotel called“ Tavern ”.

"Chichikov bought their souls from the landlords."

"The deaf-mute Gerasim did not like gossip and spoke only the truth."

"Robinson Crusoe wrote a very good book, The Life and the Wonderful Adventures of Daniel Defoe."

"My friend is broad-shouldered in the stomach."

"His head was in the form of an oval ball with ears."

"His left cheek smiled cheerfully."

"You need to go to the doctor regularly and have his teeth checked."

"The boy was rolling down the hill like cheese in butter."

"The cat settled with us when she was still a puppy."

"Our cat has got three puppies."

"My favorite animal is a bullfinch."

"I have a parrot with a talking nose."

"Having stopped, the train slowed down."

"Winter in the tundra lasts more than a year."

"Spring has come: everything turned green and crowed."

“From the south, our country is washed by three seas: the Black, Caspian and Aivazovskoe”.

In the letters that Kaminsky received, there were many different wishes. One reader wished him a Happy New Year and added:

And I also wish you to gain weight by a kilogram!

Of course, she never saw Leonid Davidovich, otherwise she would have realized that this was not worth wishing for at all.

Leo Kaminsky was very lucky: thanks to his profession, he often heard children's laughter and smiles from children. And this is very important! After all, readers and viewers will grow up to be kind and cheerful people.

The amazing adventures of Viti Bryukvin

Hello, Lyudmila Arkadyevna, I am Viti Bryukvin's dad. Did you call me?

She called. Sit down please!

Something happened? - Daddy Bryukvin asked fearfully.

No, it's okay. Here's a read, please.

The teacher took a notebook out of the portfolio, opened it and put it in front of Vitin's dad.

This is the composition of your son: "How I had a rest in the summer."

And what? - Dad was surprised. - It seems neat, almost without blots ...

No, you read. From here.

- “... There is nothing to express the confusion that seized me when I plunged into the water. I swim well, but I could not immediately surface and almost suffocated. Only when the wave that caught me, carrying a fair distance towards the shore, crashed and swept away, leaving me almost on land half-dead from the water that I drank, I took a breath and came to my senses ... The last wave almost turned out to be fatal for me, picking up, he carried me out or, rather, threw me on a rock with such force that I fainted and found myself completely helpless, and if the sea caught me again, I would inevitably choke ... "

Papa Bryukvin turned pale.

Horrible! He didn't tell me anything. Did it really happen in a pioneer camp?

Don't worry, - said Lyudmila Arkadyevna, - read on. Here.

- “... Consoling myself with the thought of safely getting rid of the mortal danger, I began to look around to find out where I had ended up. My joyful mood dropped at once: I realized that although I was saved, I was not saved from further horrors and troubles. There was no dry thread left on me, I had nothing to eat, I did not even have water to strengthen my strength ... "

What is it? - Daddy Bryukvin asked dumbfounded.

Calm down, please, - said the teacher. - This all did not happen to him. He wrote it all off.

Who? At Karnaukhova's?

No, not her. Daniel Dafoe.

Who? You want to say...

Yes. From the book "The Life and the Amazing Adventures of Robinson Crusoe".

Well, I'll show him "amazing adventures"!

Dad entered the apartment, took off his coat and asked loudly:

Where is Victor?

Hush, - said the mother, - the child is engaged!

Vitya was really sitting at the table and was writing something diligently, constantly looking into the open book. Dad took the notebook from him and read:

“... The horses ran together. But the wind grew stronger hour by hour. The cloud turned into a white cloud. It started to snow, and suddenly it fell in flakes. The wind howled: there was a blizzard ... "

So, - dad asked quietly, - are you writing an essay?

Aha, - Vitya answered. - By Thursday they asked. On the topic: "How I spent my winter holidays."

Well done, - said the Pope. - So, an essay. With the help of Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin. By Thursday ... By the way, - Dad added menacingly, - Hello from Friday. And from Robinson Crusoe!

Camu what a snitz

On a frosty December morning, Anton Petukhov headed to school. At the corner, two workers were changing the sign of a dairy shop. An old sign with big blue letters "MILK" was on the ground. Instead, the workers strengthened the other. Petukhov read with surprise: "MALAKO".

Petukhov went on. At the tram stop, he noticed a freshly painted telephone booth. A beautiful new sign "TILIFON" was installed on top. And below, on a white cardboard, it was written by hand: "ASTAROZHNA, AKRASHYNO!"

Anton Petukhov was even more surprised. Something was wrong! In the city, for some reason, they began to change the signboards! Over the building of the circus on the crane hung a huge letter "Y" - it is installed instead of the letter "I". It turns out "Tsyrk". Here at the crossroads are reinforced white balls with the inscription: "PATZEMNY PYRICHOT". Here is a flock of kids watching an uncle in a fur hat screwing a glass sign to the wall: "DETSKY SAT".

What happened?

... Anton Petukhov got to school just in time for the first bell. Lyudmila Arkadyevna entered the class with a large pile of notebooks. She greeted and said:

Well! I must tell you that some of the students are very lucky. As you have probably already heard, from today a new spelling is introduced in the Russian language - "as it is heard, so it is written." I checked your compositions on the basis of this rule. And now some of the students have shown simply brilliant results! For example, Petukhov. For the first time I gave him an A. - not a single mistake! Well done!

Petukhov, red with embarrassment, took his notebook, on the cover of which it was written "To titrate the skill of Anton Pitukhov for Ruskam", and sat down. The guys congratulated him. A neighbor on the desk, Yura Serezhkin, happily pushed him in the side. Then more and more ...

Come on, ”Petukhov dismissed.

They continued to push him.

Found a time to sleep! - Vitya Bryukvin, editor of the wall newspaper, shouted in Anton's ear. - New Year's Eve is just around the corner, and our newspaper is not yet ready! Come on, write the headline: "Who dreams that on New Year's Eve."

Anton rubbed his eyes, put the colored markers in front of him and thought.

Vit, and Vit, ”he turned to Bryukvin,“ do you remember how many “Cs” are in the word “DREAMS” - two or one? ..

The cases of Yura Serezhkin

- The third desk! Petukhov and Serezhkin! Sorry for interrupting your fascinating conversation, but we need to continue with the lesson. Serezhkin, to the board! Let's pretend you're a writer. Write us a short two or three sentence story and write it on the chalkboard. Wrote? Good. Let's see what you get.

The teacher went to the blackboard and read:

“Dad and mom scolded Vova for bad behavior. Vova was guiltily silent, and then made a promise to improve. "

- Perfectly. It seems that the story is taken straight from life. But we are now more interested in grammar. Please underline all nouns in your story. Ready? Now, Yura, determine what cases these nouns are in. Do you understand the task, Serezhkin?

- Understood, Lyudmila Arkadyevna.

- Then start.

- "Father and mother". Who what? Parents. Hence, the case is PARENTAL. Scolded whom, what? Vova. "Vova" is a name. Hence, the case is NOMINAL. Scolded for what? For bad behavior. Apparently he did something. The case is CREATIVE. Further - Vova was silent how? Guilty. So, here "Vova" has a case of ACCIDENTAL. Well, and the "promise" - of course, in DATAL, since Vova gave it. That's it ...

- Yes, the analysis turned out to be original! Bring the diary, Seryozhkin! I wonder what grade you would suggest to put yourself?

- Which one? Of course, the top five!

- Five, then? By the way, in what case did you name this word - "five"?

- IN THE OFFER.

- In the prepositional? Why is that?

- Well, of course! After all, I suggested it myself! ..

Letter

Hello friend Seryoga! Yura Shurupov is writing to you. As I wrote to you earlier, I am resting with my grandmother in the village. It is nice here. Birds chirp, cows moo, roosters crow. The village is located near the station, past which passenger and freight trains pass. By the way, the distance that a passenger train travels in 3 hours, a freight train travels in 5 hours. Now imagine that the trains set off simultaneously towards each other, and by the time they met, the distance traveled by the passenger train turned out to be 180 kilometers. The question is: what path has the freight train traveled? But this is me, by the way.

My grandmother works in a collective farm garden. What does not grow here! Recently, they harvested 176 kilograms of carrots from the garden, 468 kilograms more cabbage than carrots, and even 750 kilograms more potatoes than carrots and cabbage combined. Can you imagine how many vegetables have been collected!

You ask in a letter how deep the river is and whether there are berries in the forest. To this I cannot answer you, since I have no time to swim and go to the forest. You know that my math is a couple in a quarter, and if I fix it, then my father promised to give me a big one for my birthday. So I took up my mind. I have already solved 34 problems from the textbook, which is 2/5 of all problems, or 40%. As you can see, Seryoga, I have no time for rest! Well, nothing, I'll have a rest in September!

That's all. How are you? How are you resting? Write.

There is nothing more to write. I'm going to take this letter to the post office. The post office is located at a distance of 5 kilometers from our house. If I walk at a speed of 3 kilometers per hour, then I will reach the post office in 100 minutes.

Your friend Yura Shurupov.

Literature

Mikhail Yasnov, Henrikh Tumarinson, Nikolai Kharlampiev, Ilya Butman, Oleg Serdobolsky about Leonid Kaminsky on the website: http://www.kykymber.ru/authors.php?author=130

There are school teachers in Russian language and literature, in mathematics and geography, physical education and labor workers. And then there is the teacher of laughter and he is one of a kind. Writer and cartoonist Leonid Kaminsky became a teacher of laughter when he came up with the section "Laughter Lessons" for the magazine "Koster". Schoolchildren sent real stories to her that happened to them and made everyone laugh. What does not happen at school! Then Vitya Bryukvin presents himself as Robinson Crusoe; then Peter the First rules from paragraph 41 to paragraph 46; then Misha Mokienko sways, sways on a chair, and then ka-ak, you get the idea. You won't get bored with a teacher of laughter.
Each class has its own humorist who makes everyone laugh. But sometimes the funny happens by itself. For example, a person answers in a lesson, tries, and cannot understand why the whole class laughs at him. "The teacher of laughter" Leonid Kaminsky collected and illustrated an extensive collection of such stories about school, conversations at breaks and on the street and answers at the blackboard, after which the teacher pulls out a valerian, and classmates begin to hiccup with laughter. Most of the stories were sent to him by the guys participating in the “And everyone laughed!” Contest. For example, such a dialogue between teacher and student:
“- What does the phrase“ Sisyphean labor ”mean?
- It means useless work. For example, I learned a lesson, but you were not asked! "

Kaminsky Leonid: biography

And first the world, or rather, the town of Kalinkovichi, Gomel region, met the future writer Lenya, who was born on April 27, 1931. The boy's childhood coincided with wartime, the blockade of Leningrad and the evacuation. In 1954, Kaminsky Leonid, whose stories are read with pleasure by both adults and young generations, entered the Civil Engineering Institute in Leningrad, where, along with the same lovers of humor, he drew the wall newspaper "Lightning" with caricatures of careless students and friendly caricatures of teachers. In 1966, the Polygraphic Institute in Moscow and the specialty "graphic artist" remained behind. As a diploma work Leonid presented a book of funny drawings "About the big and the small".

Work in the "Battle Pencil"

A good school for Leonid Kaminsky, a man with a great charge of creative optimism, was the community of poets and artists "Battle Pencil", where he was led by his interest in caricature. It was a collective, famous since the war and the siege of Leningrad for its satirical posters, whose creations made people laugh at seemingly sad things in difficult situations. After all, everyone knows that laughter gives rise to optimism, and optimists live longer. And the "Battle Pencil" became for Kaminsky, who worked in it for more than thirty years, a good platform that tunes people to perceive the world around them with ease and positiveness.

In the same period, the author and part-time artist Kaminsky Leonid, whose biography is familiar to most schoolchildren, led the humorous section "Cheerful Call" in the "Koster" magazine, published on the pages of the "Literary Gazette" in the then popular "Club of 12 Chairs" not only with cartoons, but also humorous works. The first printed story was called "Graphomaniac".

Demand and love of readers

Then there was work in the youth magazine "Aurora" in Leningrad as the head of the department of humor "SLON". After some time, Kaminsky Leonid, whose stories gained great popularity among children all over the country, became a regular contributor to the magazine "Funny Pictures", publishing funny pictures and funny works for children of preschool and primary school age in the genre of poems, drawings, fairy tales and stories. The author also collaborated with children's magazines "Misha", "Iskorka", "Balamut", "Bus", "Cucumber", "Buratino".

Throughout his life, Leonid Kaminsky was engaged in collecting school humorous folklore and its publication, often performed in schools and on stage with a humorous program.

Leonid Kaminsky: a lesson in laughter

For many years Leonid Davidovich traveled to schools, conducting "lessons in laughter"; the children were not just having fun on them, they were laughing, sliding from chairs to the floor. For children, the writer was the best soul mate, thousands of young Petersburgers knew him. Any book written by Leonid Kaminsky carries with it a huge positive, is characterized by wit and ease of presentation and is interesting for both children and their parents. Children easily understand the actions of the main characters, which the author described quite accurately, as if he was eavesdropping and spying on their thoughts.

Love for children is an inexhaustible source for the creativity of Leonid Kaminsky

The writer always believed that in a child it is necessary to develop self-irony and the ability to respond to jokes if the state is interested in forming a society of optimists. Communicating with children, Kaminsky at any age was young at heart and always kept childish mischief; from the stories of the children he drew ideas for new books, the most famous of which was "Lessons in Laughter" (1986). Despite the fact that the author flaunts and makes fun of the bad habits of children, through the lines you can feel Kaminsky's great love for young readers.

Leonid Kaminsky is the most famous teacher of laughter

In addition to her own poems, stories and drawings on school topics, it included many children's stories with the original names and surnames of the authors. The teacher of laughter was a collector of school folklore and its popularizer. For 25 years, until the very last days, he led the "Cheerful Call" section in the children's magazine "Koster", from where the nickname of Kaminsky - the Teacher of Laughter - originated. The author believed that the department of humor in a magazine for schoolchildren should be led by a teacher, or rather, a teacher of laughter. The reaction of the readers was overwhelming: thousands of letters with the pearls of school humor came from different ends. Also Leonid Davidovich, who believed that a person who lacks a sense of humor is dangerous to society, was a regular author of "Murzilka", "Funny Pictures" and other publications for children. His poems are included in the school curriculum for literature.

On the stage of the Experiment Theater, the play Lessons in Laughter was staged, which lasted more than 10 years (from 1981 to 1992). In it, the role of a cheerful and witty teacher was played by Leonid Kaminsky. The author also led funny stories about the school in tandem with his friend, the poet Sergei Makhotin.

A funny story from the life of Leonid Kaminsky

Leonid Kaminsky, like every person, had his own funny story, which happened with his poem "Announcement". It was first published in 1983 - a time when notices were hung not on walls, but on drainpipes, in "Funny Pictures". And now the published poem, which told about the sale of various things and the corresponding picture in the form of an ad with a "fringe" cut at the bottom and a phone number indicated for plausibility, made a splash in the magazine, which circulation was huge. At the indicated phone number in Leningrad, they began to call from all over the country, each asked about his own: some about the sale of talking parrots, some about imported umbrellas. The pensioner, who had the same number in Moscow, also got it. The latter, having figured out what was the matter, complained about the magazine "Vesyolye Kartinki". As a result, this person's phone number was changed. But there were also other cities with the same phone numbers ...

Leonid Kaminsky, whose works are loved and read by the young generation, was the only one at once in four creative unions of St. Petersburg: artists, journalists, writers, theatrical figures. He suddenly passed away on November 23, 2005, before the next meeting with schoolchildren.

I have a daughter, Masha. When she was little, many funny stories happened to her. I wrote down some of them.

How Masha went to school

When the first graders sat down at their desks, the teacher asked:

- Who knows why you need to go to school?

Vitya raised his hand and said:

Natasha got up and said:

- To learn how to write.

- Well done, they all answered correctly, - the teacher praised.

Then Masha got up, took her briefcase and went to the door,

- Where are you going? - the teacher was surprised.

“I don’t need to go to school. I can already read, write and count.

“That's good,” the teacher said. “But it seems to me that you don't know everything yet. For example, how much would it be if twenty-five times five? What is the English word for "cat"? Where do penguins live?

- Is all this taught in school? - Masha asked.

- Of course. And why the leaves are green, and why the stars shine, and much more. Well, are you staying?

“I’m staying,” Masha said and sat down at her desk.

Missing letters

- Dad, what are you doing? - Masha asked.

- Yes, I'm composing a story. But I have a problem: the typewriter deteriorated and began to skip letters.

- You know what, - said Masha, - you rest, and I will read your story and insert the missing letters myself.

“Okay,” I agreed, “go ahead.

Ten minutes later Masha handed me a sheet. Here's what it was:

One grandmother had a fluffy cow Murka in her house.

Grandma loved her very much and treated her to a pair of hammers and turnips.

Once Murka decided to take a walk, breathe fresh jam and bask in a frying pan. The cow went out onto the porch, lay down and purred with pleasure. Suddenly, a small carrot with a long tail jumped out from under the porch. Murka deftly caught it and sang.

It was fun in the yard: mischievous brooms chirped noisily, home irons swam in puddles, and a handsome shepherd stood on the fence and crowed loudly.

Suddenly a big, angry herring emerged from the dog's office. She saw Murka and began to bark angrily. Then an insect came out of the house and drove the herring away.

I read the story and laughed out loud:

- After all, you have confused everything on purpose!

“I know,” Masha said. - But the story turned out to be funny!

- And what, - I said, - you are right.

I made a drawing for the story and sent it all to Funny Pictures.

And the story was published. It is called "Missing Letters".

About grandmother and about hippopotamus Borya

Once Masha told me:

- Dad, we are going through the letter "B" at school now. And Valentina Ivanovna asked you - can you compose a story for us so that it contains more words for this letter?

- Okay, - I agreed, - but first, let's remember the words together with the letter "B".

I took a pen and began to write, and Masha began to dictate:

- Bananas, pancakes, bagels, sandwich, jam jar, sandwich ...

“You already named the sandwich,” I said.

- Let it be different sandwiches, - answered Masha, - one with cheese, and the other - with sausage,

- Something we have with you all the words are some kind of "edible" - I said - even a can - and then with jam!

And we remembered a few more words that were no longer "edible": ballerina, grandmother, bank, bandit, gratitude ...

- Aha, - I said, - now I understand what the story will be about!

You will see this story below.

Valentina Ivanovna liked him very much. True, some of the words in this story surprised her a little. She said that there are no such words. And what do you think?

Once upon a time there was a grandmother. She was a former ballerina. She loved to watch the belevisor. Most of all she liked the cartoons and films “The Three Musketeers” with the participation of the actor Boyarsky.

The hippopotamus Borya lived with my grandmother. Grandmother spoiled Borya, sewed him a peakless cap with a bow, taught him to play the balalaika and read the Burzilka magazine to him before going to bed.

One morning on Bondelnik, grandmother and Borya were woken up by an alarm clock. They ate breakfast: my grandmother ate it. bun and drank coffee with a bog, and Borya ate pancakes, bananas, a sandwich with cheese., a sandwich with sausage and a can of lingonberry barrenga.

Then the grandmother from Borya went to the bakery to buy a loaf, bagels and bagels.

Suddenly, on Bolshoy Avenue, they saw people running. Ahead was a bearded bandit who had just robbed a bank. He was wearing a beret, sleeveless jacket and sandals. In his hands he had a big flight bag full of money. The bandit was followed by: a pale bank director, an accountant and two brave policemen who fired encore / flights into the air.

Then the bandit saw a standing bulldozer. There was no one in the cockpit - the bulldozer driver went to the bathhouse. The bandit jumped into the cockpit and turned on the botor. The bulldozer rushed off, frightening the walkers and white cyclists.

- Disgrace! - shouted the grandmother and whispered something in Bora's ear. The hippopotamus rushed to cut the bulldozer and stopped it with its side. The bandit wanted to run, but Borya grabbed him by the thigh. The poor man shouted: "I will not be any more!"

Everything ended well. For the capture of a dangerous criminal, grandmother and Borya were thanked and awarded a ticket to Bulgaria, to the coast of the Black Bor.
