Hannah, in high wrath, told the other
legatees that she resigned to them her
valuable share of the property, and then
retired. In equal rage, Charles kicked
down the pitcher, and, as it broke, a
multitude of guineas burst out and
rolled along the floor. This fortunate
discovery induced those present to ex-

great joy, were crammed with money.
