    man went out and caught it and put it in, waiting to get an owner for it. He waited for a week but no owner came. At the end of this time he thought he would make the horse work for his keep. He began to make the horse work. He would ask everyone he saw if he had lost a horse but everyone said no. He kept the horse for twenty years and he never got an owner for it. His wife said one day to him. "Pat the horse you lost was all for luck".
