Story 317

Attila The Hum

Attila the Hun was one of the most vicious men who ever

lived under the sun. His enemies were stunned by the

intricate traps he spun. With just a sword, never a gun,

he fought just for fun.

Being fearful, even his own soldiers would shun “The

Hun.” But when he took Rome he hurt no one – not the

Pope, not a priest, not a single nun – certainly not a married one.
