  1. A Funny Story

    Share Share Post
    One night a man was passing a quarry. Next moment he heard the sound of some chains rattling. He quickened his step, but the rattling seemed to follow him. He took courage, and on looking round saw nothing but an old ass with its drafts, dragging on the ground.
