A Story (continued)
“Once upon a time there lived in Breecy mountain a poor old man.”
(continued from previous page)The minister then spoke and said, “It will take twenty pounds to bury you.” That leaves only twenty pounds and you might as well give it to me.
“All right” said the old man you may have it, and lying back on his pillow he said. “Thanks be to God I am willing to die like Our Lord between two thieves.”- Collector
