barrels of wood ashes that were the
assets of deceased miser. who was
supposed to have been worth 100000
when he died. The neighbors OF the
farmer laughed at him when he bought
the ashes. They are laughing now,
but out Of the other side Of their
mouths. for the farmer found $500 in
bills hidden at the bottom of one of
the barrels.
