Once upon a time two brothers who lived on adjoining farms fell into conflict.
They had been sharing machinery, trading a labour and goods as needed without a hitch. Then the long collaboration fell apart. It began with a small misunderstanding and it grew into a major difference which exploded into an exchange of bitter word followed by week of silence.
