The head asked for our explanation and who was to blame. All we could say was sorry. In that case the head said you will each receive two strokes of the cane. He pointed this shortish cane in my direction and asked if I had seen it before. No sir I said. Hands or bottom came the reply. Being in the first year we wore shorts, and I figured that the protection of these plus pants would be helpful. Bottom sir I replied. Put that chair in the centre I was ordered and yourself over it. This was a new experience but I duely obliged. My backside felt very exposed, and the head I felt looked carefully at it to make sure no extras were there. I then heard a noise and a crack across my backside. No pain then much pain. It had landed on the top half of my backside.
