My territory was situated on
the Patterimäki ("Battery Hill") slope facing the town. I could not go to the
other side of the hill. The evil boys of Kolikkoinmäki ("Coins Hill") were
living there. I think, however, that my mother was worried the most about the deep moats
with their steep edges. The walls of the trenches were easily ten metres high. The stony
hill close to the town was exciting as such. The feeling that some great secret had been
concealed in the hill added to the excitement. |
